Patrice, by himself, can paint four rooms in 10 hours. If he hires April to help, they can do the same job together in 6 hours.

If he lets April work alone, how long will it take her to paint the four rooms?

-- The whole discussion involves 4 rooms, never more and never less,
so we can call the 4 rooms "1 job" for simplicity.

-- Patrice, by himself, does the job in 10 hours.  So he does 1/10 of
the job each hour.

-- Working together, Patrice and April do the job in 6 hours.  So when
they work together, they do 1/6 of the job each hour.

-- April's part of the job is (1/6 - 1/10) = (5/30 - 3/30) = 2/30 = 1/15 job per hour.

-- Her unit rate alone is  1/15 job per hour, or  <em>15 hours</em> per job.

Tell which congruence postulate or theorem you would use to show that thetriangles are congruent.
vlabodo [156]

From the given figure, we know that:

\begin{gathered} NO\cong LO \\ NM\cong LM \\ MO\cong MO \end{gathered}

This means that the three sides of triangle MNO are congruent to three sides of triangle LMO. Therefore, the triangles are congruent by Side Side Side postulate.

What is the explicit equation for this series 25,21,17,13
Neko [114]

Answer:

The explicit rule is:

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit rule is given by:

a_n=a_1+d(n-1)

The given sequence is 25,21,17,13

a_1=25

d=21-25

d=-4

We plug in the values into the formula to get;

a_n=25+-4(n-1)

a_n=25-4n+4

a_n=29-4n
