8x^2+6x^2+4x=138  combine like terms on left side

14x^2+4x=138 since the number of seats in the from row is just 4x, subtract 14x^2 from both sides

4x=138-14x^2  that would be the general solution, if you wanted the actual number you would have to solve for x and then multiply that value by 4 to know what "4x" is...

14x^2+4x-138=0

14x^2-42x+46x-138=0

14x(x-3)+46(x-3)=0

(14x+46)(x-3)=0

2(7x+23)(x-3)=0, since x>0

x=3 and thus

4x=12 seats

So there are 12 seats in the front row addition.
