Answer:

(a) 22 (b) 109

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: Auditoriums are often designed so that are fewer seats per row for rows closer to the stage. Suppose you are sitting in row 18 in an auditorium and notice that there are 73 seats in your row. It appears the row in front of you has 70 seats and the row behind you has 76 seats. Suppose this pattern continues throughout the auditorium.

TO FIND: a) How many seats are in the first row b) How many seats are in the 30th row?

SOLUTION:

total seats in row_{19}=76

total seats in row_{18} =73

total seats in row_{17}=70

as it clearly form an A.P. with d=76-73=3

(a)

let total seat in first row be a

as total seats in row_{18}=73

row_{18}=a+(n-1)d

73=a+17\times3

a=22

total seats in first row are 22

(b)

total seats in 30th be x

x=row_{1}+(30-1)3

x=22+29\times3

x=109

total seats in 30th row  are 109

the ages of six girls are as follows;17,8,12,15,15,13 .what would be the age of the seventh girl that would make the mean age of
Elden [556K]

Answer:

11 yrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = sum of ages/number of ages

Let the age of the seventh girl be A

Given the addition of the age of the seventh girl will make the mean of the ages be 13,

So,

13 = 17+8+12+15+15+13+A/7

Add up the ages

13 = 80 + A /7

Cross multiply

80 + A = 13 x 7

80 + A = 91

Subtract 80 from both sides to isolate A

80 - 80 + A = 91 - 80

A = 11

The age of the seventh girl is 11
