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.

G = {(5,3), (2, 3), (6,4)} Is G^-1 a function and why?
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

The inverse relation G^(-1) is not a function. Why not? Because the y value y = 3 is paired up with more than one x value (x = 5, x = 2). The inverse relation G^(-1) is the set shown below

{(3,5), (3,2), (4,6)}

All I've done is swap the (x,y) values for each ordered pair to form the inverse relation. As you can see, x = 3 leads to multiple y value outputs which is why this relation is not a function. So in short, the answer is choice C. To have the inverse relation be a function, each value in the original domain must map to exactly one value in the range only. However that doesn't happen as the domain values map to an overlapping y value (y = 3).
