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.

Answer:

Please see attached image and all steps below for both parts

Step-by-step explanation:

Task 1

The following system of equations includes a linear equation and a quadratic one:

\left \{ {{y=x+2} \atop {y=x^2-8x+2}} \right} \}

it can be solved by using substitution in the second equation of the variable "y" by the linear expression of the first equation:

x+2=x^2-8x+2\\x=x^2-8x\\x^2-9x=0\\x\,(x-9)=0

and this product of two factors will e zero when either factor is zero, that is: when x = 0, or when x = 9 [to make zero the binomial(x - 9)]

There are two solutions: x = 0 and x = 9.

When we graph both expressions in the system, we see that the line intercepts the parabola at the points (0, 2) and (9, 11). See attached image.

Task 2

Part 1:

Let's pick 30 as a number larger than 25. 30 can be written as 40 - 10

So we can use:

(40 -10)^2=40^2-2\,(40)\,(10)+ 10^2=1600-800+100=900

to calculate its square.

Part 2:

let's choose a=9 and b=10 so we use:

9^3+10^3=(9 + 10)\,(9^2-(9)\,(10)+10^2)=(19)\,(81-(90)+100)=19\,(81-180+100)=19\,*\,91=1729

How do you solve this equation log(3x+1)=5
Len [333]

log_{10} 3x+1=5

3x+1=10^5

3x+1=100000

3x=99999

x=333333


Just remember that in the form of log_ab=x, you get a^x=b.
