Let the number of rows be x

rows = x
seats in each row = x + 20

total seats = 1344
x (x + 20) = 1344
x^2 + 20x - 1344 = 0
(x + 48)(x - 28) = 0
x = -48  (rejected, answer cannot be negative) or x = 28

Therefore,
x = 28 
x + 20 = 48


Check:
Row = 28
Numbers of seat per row = 28 + 20 = 48
28 x 48 = 1344 (Correct)
 
Ans:There are 48 seats per row

The figure represents the shape of a kitchen floor. What is the area? (round to the nearest hundredth)
Murljashka [212]
We would divide the shape into a rectangle and a trapezium

The rectangle is of length, 24.5 ft and width 10.75 ft

Area =  24.5 * 10.75 = 263.375 square feet.


Trapezium :  Parallel sides are 18.5 ft and 24.5 ft
Height:  12 - 10.75 = 1.25ft

Area of Trapezium = (1/2)*(Sum of Parallel sides)*height

                            = 1/2 * (18.5+24.5)* 1.25
                            = 1/2 * 43* 1.25 = 26.875     

Total Area = Area of Rectangle + Area of Trapezium

               =  263.375 + 26.875   = 290.25

Area = 290.25 ft²     (D)

Krispy Kritters Cereal used to come in a
shtirl [24]

Answer:

1335cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The question above says that,Krispy kritters cereal used to come in a box with a volume of 2,850 cm3. However, the krispy kritters co. Designed a new larger box 22.5 cm wide, 6.2 cm deep, and 30 cm high and we are now asked to find "How many more cubic centimeters will the new box hold than the old box?

Now we are all aware that the volume of a cube or cuboid(since its a box ) is length multipled by width multiplied by the height.

And we were given the new dimensions which are;

12.5cm wide

6.2cm deep and

30cm high

Apply this given figures in the formula above and we have:

V = 12.5 × 6.2 × 30

= 4185cm³( this is the volume of the box)

Therefore,the difference in volume between the new box and the old box is

4185 - 2850 = 1335cm³
