Answer:

Equilateral Triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each side is the same length, divide the perimeter by side length to get the number of sides.

36in ÷ 12in = 3

A triangle has 3 sides.

Answer: Triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

he formula for finding the perimeter of a regular polygon is just the number of sides x the length of any side. that is

12n = 36

n = 36/12

n = 3

The polygon is a Triangle

The population of a town is 13,000. It decreases at a rate of 5% per year. In about how many years will the population be less t
just olya [345]

This is an exponential decay problem.

Using the equation Y = a *(1-rate)^time

where Y is the future value given as 12,000 and a is the starting value given as 13,000.

The rate is also given as 5%.

The equation becomes:

12,000 = 13,000(1-0.05)^x

12,000 = 13,000(0.95)^x

Divide each side by 13000:

12000/13000 = 0.95^x/13000

12/13 = 0.95^x

Use the natural log function:

x = ln(12/13) / ln(0.95)

x = 1.56 years. ( this will equal 12,000

Round to 2 years it will be less than 12000.

Write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form.<br><br><br><br> The equation is y= <br> .
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

y = x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

     Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Here, b is equal to 2 because the line crosses the y-axis at 2. THe slope is rise over run, or the change in y divided by the change in x. From the two points given, we get 3/3 which is equal to 1. 1x equals x, so this gives us "no slope." Putting it together gives us y = x + 2.

Have a nice day!

     I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)

Use the multiplier method to increase 88 pounds by 14% you must show your working
Komok [63]

Answer:

100.32

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to find 14% of 88

14% of 88 is = 88 x 14/100

                  = 12.32

Now we have to increase the number 88 by 14%, which means we have to add 14% of 88 (12.32) to the given number (88)  

88 + (14% of 88)

= 88 + 12.32

=100.32 pounds
