I'm not sure what to do about this problem, so please help me out.

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three consecutive integers be;

    x , x + 1 and x + 2:

The sum of squares of the two smaller numbers:

  The two smaller numbers are x and x+ 1

Sum of their squares:

           x² + (x+1)²;

        x² + x² + 2x + 1 = 2x² + 2x + 1

It is 45 more than the square of the larger number:

    Larger number = x + 2

        (x+2)² = x² + 4x + 4

 45 more;

        x² + 4x + 4 + 45  = x² + 4x + 49

Both are equal:

 2x² + 2x + 1 =  x² + 4x + 49  

  2x² - x² + 2x - 4x + 1 - 49 = 0

      x² - 2x - 48 = 0

      x² - 6x + 8x - 48 = 0

      x(x - 6) + 8(x - 6) = 0

      (x + 8)(x-6) = 0

      x + 8 = 0 or x - 6 = 0

      x  = -8 or x = 6

We choose x = 6 because it makes the solution true as a positive integer

  Sum of the three numbers:

     x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 6 + 6 + 1 + 6 + 2 = 21

d. millimeters per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

carlo used a rain gauge to measure the amount of water his lawn is receiving from the sprinklers.

since, according to the options, we see that,

water cannot be measured by 'miles per hour', 'meters per second' and 'grams per seconds'.

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.

42%

step-by-step explanation:

we know,

total people = 60

total males = 25

percentage of males

= 25/60 × 100

= 25/6 × 10

= 25/3 × 5

= 125 / 3

= 41.

rounding of = 42%
