Step-by-step explanation:
To get -4 from 1, we must either subtract 5 from 1 or mult. 1 by -4. Unfortunately subtracting 5 from -4 does not result in 9, and mult -4 by -4 does not result in -16. So neither "works" in predicting the next term.
Can you think of any other experiments to do that would help you discover the pattern 1, -4, 9, -16?
Answer:
15 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Betty mows at 3 times the speed that Bullwinkle does, so is equivalent to having 3 Bullwinkles in her place. That makes the lawn get mowed as though 4 Bullwinkles were working, so it will take 1/4 the time it takes Bullwinkle to mow the whole yard. 1/4 of 60 minutes is 15 minutes.
Working together, Betty and Bullwinkle will take 15 minutes to mow the lawn.
