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

An athlete knows that when she jogs along her neighborhood​ greenway, she can complete the route in 10 minutes. It takes 20 minu
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

10 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent athlete's walking speed.

We have been given that her jogging rate is 5 mph faster than her walking​ rate, so athlete's jogging speed would be x+5 miles per hour.

\text{Distance}=\text{Rate}\cdot \text{Time}

10 minutes = 1/6 hour.

20 minutes = 1/3 hour

While walking, we will get D_{\text{walking}}=x\frac{\text{miles}}{\text{hour}}\cdot \frac{1}{3}\text{hour}

D_{\text{walking}}=\frac{x}{3}

While jogging, we will get D_{\text{jogging}}=(x+5)\frac{\text{miles}}{\text{hour}}\cdot \frac{1}{6}\text{hour}

D_{\text{jogging}}= \frac{(x+5)}{6}

Since athlete is covering same distance while walking and jogging, so we can equate both expressions as:

\frac{x}{3}=\frac{x+5}{6}

Cross multiply:

6x=3x+15

6x-3x=15

3x=15

\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{15}{3}\\\\x=5

Therefore, athlete's walking speed is 5 miles per hour.

Jogging speed: x+5\Rightarrow 5+5=10

Therefore, athlete's jogging speed is 10 miles per hour.

17. The Bricklayer needs 100 pieces of angle, each to be cut 54 3/16" long. 1 point
mariarad [96]

The number of cuts from a 20% length is 2 and the number of 20' angle are needed in order to have the 100 pieces is 5

<h3>How to determine the number</h3>

From the information given;

The bricklayer needs = 100 pieces of angle

The number of cuts = 54

Length of cuts = 3/ 16'' Inches

a. To determine the number of cuts form a 20% length, we have to multiply the length by the percentage and by the initial number of cuts

= 20/ 100 × 3/ 16 × 54

= 0. 2 × 0. 1875 × 54

= 2. 0

The number of cuts would be 2

b. To determine the number of pieces of 20' angle to have 100 pieces we would divide the initial number of pieces by the angle

= 100/ 20

= 5 pieces

The number of pieces of 20' angle is 5

Thus, the number of cuts from a 20% length is 2 and the number of 20' angle are needed in order to have the 100 pieces is 5

Look the video up on gogle then I got the 4 of those points
elena55 [62]

Explanation:

1. A clean and neat professional appearance is an important step in making a good first impression. You want the interviewer to focus on you and your skills not your clothes. Dress as you want to be seen: professional, successful, and the kind of person the company wants to represent it.

2. Many people think that arriving early will take too much time out of their day. Yet, arriving early actually gives you time back in your day. You will more than recoup the ten minutes you arrive early in the productivity you gain by being able to catch up and prepare for the interview.

3. Bringing a hard copy does two things: it refreshes your memory, and it makes you look prepared for anything. You should always bring two to three copies of your resume so the person you're meeting can have it in front of them throughout the conversation. A well-written resume can help you secure an interview and get a job offer.

4. Note taking forces you to pay attention and helps you focus while the interviewer is talking. It has been shown that actively engaging with the topic by listening and then writing what you hear helps you understand and remember the information later.
