The answer is (12,6) because you just have to add it up to the right number then you get the answer
Answer:
d. -44
Explanation:
Step 1 - Find the pattern
1, -4, -9, -14...
Clearly the pattern is adding negative five each time.
Step 2 - Simply continue the pattern until you get to the tenth value
1, -4, -9, -14, -19, -24, -29, -34, -39, -44
Therefore, the tenth value in the sequence is most likely -44.
88 feet in 2 seconds
how many feet in 1 minute?
1 minute is 60 seconds
so, we can write a proportion and solve
feet/ seconds = feet/seconds
88/2 = x / 60
cross multiply
(88 * 60 ) = 2 * x
5280 = 2x
divide both sides by 2
2640 = x
To check:
88/2 =?= 2640 / 60
44 = 44
So the car travels 2640 feet in 60 seconds, or 1 minute.
(btw just in case you wanted to know also, 2640 feet is equal to 0.5 of a mile, that car travels 0.5 miles in 1 minute)
Hope this helps
So,
Let Mercado's age be m and his daughter's age be d.
Our first equation: m = 37
Our second equation: m = 5 + 4d
Substitute 37 for m
37 = 5 + 4d
Subtract 5 from both sides
32 = 4d
Divide both sides by 4
8 = d
His daughter is 8 years old.
