Answer:
<em>Patterns are important because <u>they offer visual clues to an underlying order</u>. If you can unlock a pattern, then you have the ability to alter or shape it in order to achieve some effect. Patterns can also be used as a template that will enable one to quickly analyze a situation and understand how it works.</em>

Answer:
Lesson 2 and metric conversions from Module 2. ... Problem 2: Convert hours to minutes. ... of minutes in one hour. How many minutes are in an hour? 0. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
Your final answer is going to be 4r + 3r ^2 +7
You can solve this one by adding their rates, but you have to invert the numbers they give you to find the rate. Rate is measured in something per unit of time, and "per" indicates division. So the rates are: 1/3 of an hour (Sally) and 1/6 of an hour (Steve). So add the rates: 1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2. (1/3 is 2/6, and 2/6 + 1/6 = 3/6). Since their combined rate is 1/2 of a room in one hour, it takes them two hours to paint the room.
This answer makes sense: It takes Sally three hours by herself; with Steve's help, she's faster, but not THAT much faster, because he's pretty slow. You can often spot-check word problem answers like this by giving it a common sense once-over. If we came up with four hours, that would clearly be wrong: it should take her LONGER if she's getting help.
