Multiply by 100, as per cent means per 100.
Multiplying positive numbers always comes out positive, no matter how many there are. So you can forget about the positive ones.
Every two negative numbers in a multiplication produce a positive.
Another way to say that is: If the number of negative ones is EVEN,
the answer is positive, and if it's ODD, the answer is negative.
That monster product of eight numbers in problem #12 will be negative,
because there are an odd amount of negative factors in it.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let J and M represent the current ages of Jacob and his Mother.
<u>currently</u>:
M = 3 +9J
<u>in 11 years</u>:
M+11 = 5 +3(J+11)
Using the first equation to substitute for M in the second, we have ...
(3 +9J) +11 = 5 +3(J +11) . . . . . substitute for M
9J +14 = 3J +38 . . . . . . simplify
6J + 24 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3J+14
J = 4 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 6
M = 3 +9(4) = 39
Jacob is 4 and his mother is 39.
Answer:
C is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 4 first term, r = ?, T10 = 100.
Tn = ar^n - 1 formula for g.p
T10 = 4r^ 10 - 1
100 = 4r^9
Divide both side by 4
100/4 = 4/4r^9
25 = r^9 take the 9th root of both side
9√25 = 9√r^9
r = 9√25
To find the nth term
Since Tn = ar^n - 1
