It's the 11th day of autumn and the first leaf has fallen! If the number of leaves on the ground is tripling with each passing day, what is the total number of leaves that have fallen to the ground by the end of the 24th day of autumn

1,594,323

Step-by-step explanation:

No of leaves which falls daily on the first day = 1

No of days leaves falls = 14 days.

Solution:

No of leaves of day 1

= 1.

No of leaves on day 2

= 1*3

= 3

No of leaves of day 3

= 3*3

= 9

No of leaves of day 4

= 9*3

= 27

No of leaves on day 5

= 27*3

= 81

No of leaves on day 6.

= 81*3

= 243.

No of leaves of day 7

= 243*3

= 729

No of leaves on day 8

= 729 * 3

= 2187

No of leaves on day 9

= 2187 *3

= 6561

No of leaves on day 10

= 6561 * 3

= 19683

No of leaves on day 11

= 19683 * 3

= 59049

No of leaves on day 12

= 59049 *3

= 177147

No of leaves on day 13

= 531441

No of leaves on day 14

= 531441 * 3

= 1,594,323.

The number of leaves that would be on the ground on the 24th day of autumn would be 1,594,323

to find the perimeter of the rectangle this is the expression:

x-9+x-9+3x-4+3x-4=138

if we simplify it:

8x-26=138

remember, 138 is what it all adds up to

the length is 11.5cm

the width is 57.5cm

the area is 661.25cm^2
