Jeff is designing the seating arrangement for a concert in his high school theater. To give everyone a good view, each row must

have 5 more seats than the row before it, and the 1st row can only have 12 seats. Explain to Jeff how to create an equation to predict the number of seats in any row. Then, using your equation, show your work to determine the number of seats in row 25.

Answer:

132

Step-by-step explanation:

1. After reading this we can conclude some values:

Common difference (d) = 5

(Since increasing by 5 is the same as adding 5 we can determine it is arithmetic and since we are not looking for a sum we can conclude it a sequence.)

First-term (a[1]) = 12

Row number (n) = 25

2. Now the staring formula for and arithmetic sequence is A[n] = a[1] + (n-1)d.

A[n] = 12 + (n-1)5

3. Now that we have the formula we can solve for the number of seats in row 25 by plugging in 25 for n.

A[25] = 12 + (25-1)5

A[25] = 12 + 24*5

A[25] = 12 + 120

A[25] = 132

4. So in row 25, we will have 132 seats.

Answer:

12+5x X being the row number, may need to minus 1. 12+5(25)=135 or 12+5(24)=132 if you need to minus one

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason why I said you might need to minus 1 from the row number because if you plug in 2 for x, 2 being row 2, you would get 22 when you truly would only need 17.  If you do need to minus 1 the sample equation would be 12+5(x-1)

Hope that helps and is right! sorry if it isn't

Marcelino bought balloons to sell at lunches to raise money for charity
Arada [10]

Answer:

<u>Marcelino will have $7.50: his costs are more than his profits. </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

22.50 + 7.50 + 15.00

In total Marcelino spent $45 to make these balloons.

He wants to sell each balloon for $1.25.

If he sells the 30 balloons he bought for $1.25 he will make:

30 * 1.25 = $37.50... okay he made some money, BUT he spent $45 dollars for the items.

45 - 37.50 = $7.50, Marcelino made no profit... he still needs to make $7.50 to pay off his own costs.

In a sale, normal prices are reduced by 20%. Andrew bought a saddle for his horse in the sale. The sale price of the saddle was
pshichka [43]
The formula for this is: (sale price) / (1 - percentage)
Percentage have to be in decimal form, so divide percentage by 100 to get the decimal form.

220/(1-.20) = $275

The original price was $275.

The graph shows the distribution of the number of text messages young adults send per day. The distribution is approximately Nor
erik [133]

The percentage of young adults send between 128 and 158 text messages per day is; 34%

<h3>How to find the percentage from z-score?</h3>

The distribution is approximately Normal, with a mean of 128 messages and a standard deviation of 30 messages.

We are given;

Sample mean; x' = 158

Population mean; μ = 128

standard deviation; σ = 30

We want to find the area under the curve from x = 248 to x = 158.

where x is the number of text messages sent per day.

To find P(158 < x < 248), we will convert the score x = 158 to its corresponding z score as;

z = (x - μ)/σ

z = (158 - 128)/30

z = 30/30

z = 1

This tells us that the score x = 158 is exactly one standard deviation above the mean μ = 128.

From online p-value from z-score calculator, we have;

P-value = 0.34134 = 34%

Approximately 34% of the the population sends between 128 and 158 text messages per day.

A figure with parallel lines m and n is shown. What is the measure, in degrees, of angle b?
Radda [10]

Answer:

48°

Step-by-step explanation:

Not sure if you've learner this yet, but the two angles shown are called alternate exterior angles. To make it a little bit easier, 48° has to be the answer since it's the only other angle shown. But to explain it more..

There's corresponding and vertical angles which can be used to solve this equation. There are four spots that would equal 48°, including "b". Corresponding angles are in the same spot, but different sections. There's also vertical angles, which are right across from each other. If you apply vertical and corresponding angles b will be 48°.

Please let me know if you don't really understand what I attempted to explain.  If you haven't gone into depths about what I talked about, just think about the first paragraph/section.
