-4 + -7= -11
When adding negative numbers if the are both negative then you add them. When you have a negative and a positive you subtract. In this problem they just took out the plus sign.
Answer:
The two numbers following 1,-2,3,-4,5... are -6 and 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
index: 1 2 3 4 5 ....
value: 1 -2 3 -4 5
Let the index be n. Then the first term is a(1), the secon is a(2), and so on.
a(2) = 2*(-1)^(2-1) = 2*(-1) = -2 (correct)
a(3) = 3*(-1)^(3-1) = 3*(-1)^2 = 3 (correct)
a(4) = 4*(-1)^(4-1) = 4*(-1)^3 = -4 (correct)
So the general formula for a(n) is: a(n)=n(-1)^(n-1)
Thus,
a(5) = 5(-1)^4 = 5
a(6) = 6(-1)^5 = -6
a(7) = 7(-1)^6 = 7
The "next two numbers in the pattern" are -6 and 7. The first 7 numbers are
1,-2,3,-4,5, -6, 7
The correct option will be: A. 67%
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
Given equation is:
, where
is the length of the film in minutes and
is the percentage of people finish watching the film.
Here, the length of the documentary is given as 95 minutes. So, we will <u>plug
into the above equation</u> and get....

<em>(Rounded to the nearest percent)</em>
So, the percentage of people in an audience who will finish watching a documentary that is 95 minutes long will be 67%
