The way we would answer the question would be to express it as
100-9(n-1) with n being the nth term of the pattern.
Why is this? We know we subtract 9 each time and START from 100.
Remember though that 100 is the first term in the sequence. So, we would have (n-1)*9 to subtract 0 from our 1st term and 9 from our second term.
Also, we have 9*(n-1) because we are just subtracting multiples of 9. It is always going to subtract by 9.
If you needed the answer here it is...
The answer to the problem would be
100-9(13-1)
= 100-9(12)
= 100-108
= -8
Option C
Math teacher would need to buy 130 prizes
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Math teacher currently has 109 students and the box has 88 prizes in it
The math teacher likes to keep at least twice as many prizes in the box as she has students
So, she wants the number of prizes to be twice the number of students
Therefore,
number of prizes = 2 x 109 students
number of prizes = 2 x 109 = 218 prizes
The box has 88 prizes in it
Therefore, number of prizes she would need to buy is:
⇒ 218 - 88 = 130
Thus she would need to buy 130 prizes
Answer:
Four hundred seventy six thousand
Step-by-step explanation:
I think this is what you mean. If not, let me know. Thank you:))
Let us always base on the present age. We denote this by x. Now, the age he had 2 years ago would then be denoted as (x-2). Let's equate this to 20 years old.
x - 2 = 20
x = 20 + 2
x = 22 years old
He should be 22 years old now.
Let's check the other condition. After 1 year, his age should be (x+1). Let's equate this to 23 years old.
x + 1 = 23
x = 23 - 1
x = 22
Thus, this is possible if Reuben is 22 years old as of the present.
Answer:
the sum of x and 15 is -16 because it is a straight line which means the straight line is a function.
