Given:

The number of seats in the first row is <em>a</em>₁ = 12.

The series of the increasing number of seats is 12, 14, 16......

The objective is to find the total number of seats in the first 12 rows.

Explanation:

The difference between the number of seats in each row can be calculated by the difference between the successive terms of the series.

\begin{gathered} d=14-12=2 \\ d=16-14=2 \end{gathered}

The number of rows to be calculated is <em>n</em> = 12.

To find the number of seats:

The number of seats presents in the first 12 rows can be calculated as,

S_n=\frac{n}{2}\lbrack2a_1+(n-1)d\rbrack

On plugging the obtained values in the above equation,

\begin{gathered} S_{12}=\frac{12}{2}\lbrack2(12)+(12-1)2\rbrack \\ =6\lbrack24+11(2)\rbrack \\ =6(46) \\ =276 \end{gathered}

Hence, the total number of seats in the first 12 rows is 276.

Which equation represents y = x2 + 16x + 70 in vertex form?
baherus [9]

Answer:

y = (x + 8)² + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

To obtain this form use the method of completing the square

add/subtract (half the coefficient of the x- term )² to x² + 16x

y = x² + 2(8)x + 64 - 64 + 70

   = (x + 8)² + 6 ← in vertex form

On average during the summer, a 30,000 cubic foot house costs $7 per day to cool, while a 25,000 cubic foot house costs $6.50 pe
Ber [7]

The house with 30000 cubic foot costs less to cool per cubic foot than the house with 25000 cubic foot.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of cooling 30000 cubic foot house = $7

Cost per cubic foot = 7/30000

=$0.00023

The cost of cooling 25000 cubic foot house= $6.50

Cost per cubic foot=6.50/25000

= $0.00026

The house with 30000 cubic foot costs less to cool per cubic foot than the house with 25000 cubic foot.

How is the distributive property used to expand expressions? provide an example
Pepsi [2]
Yes the distributive property is used to expand expressions, but it is also used to make it simpler.
For an example

3(x+4) + 3(y-8)
This is the same thing as
3x + 12 + 3y -8

Answer:

11,232,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The key to this problem is knowing "repetition is NOT ALLOWED".

<u>For the first 3 letters slot:</u>

For the 1st slot, we can pick any of the 26 alphabets

For the 2nd slot, we can pick any of the 25 remaining alphabets (since 1 is already taken)

For the 3rd slot, we can pick any of the 24 remaining letters (since 2 is already taken)

<u>For the three digits slot:</u>

For the 1st slot, we can pick any one of the 10 digits

For the 2nd slot, we can pick any one of the 9 digits left, since 1 is taken already

For the 3rd slot, we can pick any one of the 8 digits left, since 2 is already taken

The number of license plates, thus, would be all of these multiplied together:

26 * 25 * 24 * 10 * 9 * 8 = 11,232,000
