Answer:

342 seats

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  Theater has 19 rows and the last row has 27 seats. The number of seats in each row increases by 1 as you move toward the back of the section.

To Find:  How many seats are in this section of the theater.

Solution:

Since we are given that each row increases by 1 seat

So, we can use arithmetic progression

So, d = 1

No. of rows n = 19

The last row i.e. row 19 has 27 seats

nth term of A.P. = a_n=a+(n-1)d

a is the first term

Substitute n = 19

So, a_{19}=a+(19-1)(1)

a_{19}=a+18

Since row 19 has 27 seats

So, 27=a+18

27 -18=a

9=a

Now we are supposed to find the number of seats in the theater.

So, Sum of first n terms in A.P. = S_n=\frac{n}{2}(a+a_n)

Substitute n =19

S_{19}=\frac{19}{2}(9+27)

S_{19}=342

Hence there are 342 seats in the theater.

A. 26 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

change denominator so they can be the same

3/4*3  =   9/12

1/3*4   =   4/12

Add the whole numbers : 10 +15=25

9/12+4/12= 13/12 so 1 1/12

r-ruslan [8.4K]
In order to check whether the length of the sides are applicable to form a triangle is that we have to make sure that the sum of the length of two side should be greater than the third side.

<span>18.5 m, 36.9 m, and 16.9 m
18.5 m < </span><span>36.9 m +16.9 m
</span>36.9 m < 18.5<span> m +16.9 m
</span>16.9 m < 18.5 m + <span>36.9 </span>m

So the dimensions are correct!
