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

Pedro is building a playground in the shape of a right triangle he wants to know the area of the playground to help him decide h
shusha [124]

Answer:

Amount of sand=Area of triangle(ABC)=1/2*AB*BC

Dimension of rectangle as  length=BC and breadth=AB

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Pedro building a playground in shape of right angled triangle.

To Find:

How much sand he need to buy

And if playground changed to rectangle what will be the dimensions.

Solution:

<em>Consider a ΔABC be the play ground vertex of playground,</em>

<em>And AB and BC be the sides making right angle.</em>

The sand required to fill ground will be the amount of are covered by the ABC triangle.

So,

Area Of triangle(ABC)=1/2* base* height

Here base will be BC and height =AB

Therefore Area of Triangle(ABC)=1/2*BC*AB

Depending on the lengths of base and height amount of sand will be decided.

Now,

<em>For Rectangle dimensions,</em>

<em>We know that if same sized triangles composes each other forms a rectangle</em>.

It requires two triangle to form one rectangle as follows

(Refer the attachment)

Same sized Triangle ACD is imposed on it  to from rectangle ABCD.

So dimension for rectangle will be same as the triangle

Dimension=length and breadth

i.e. length=base of triangle=BC

Breadth=Height of triangle=AB

i.e Breadth =AB.

To play the lottery in a certain state, a person has to correctly select 5 out of 45 numbers, paying a $1 for each five-number s
defon

There are 45 numbers out of which 5 numbers are required to win an enormous sum of money

No of ways  in which 5 numbers can be selected out of 45 numbers.

C_{45}^5=\frac{45!}{40!5!} =1221759

out of which there is only combination foe contest winning

P=\frac{1}{1221759}

When 100 different tickets are bought then

Probability of winning: \frac{100}{1221759}

Probably of winning≈0,000082

A cylinder has a height of 7cm.
valina [46]

We first need to find the radius of the circle, so we need to do 8π/π which gives us a diameter of 8 cm, halving this gives us a radius of 4 cm.

The area of this circle will be:

A = πr^2

A = 4^2

A = 16π cm^2

Now to find the volume we simply multiply the area by the height:

16π × 7 = 112π cm^3 which is our final answer.
