A₁ = 9
a₂ = 9+2  → a₂ = a₁ + 2. Since it's an AP, d, the common difference is 2

1) Then the recursive formula is :
a(n) = a(n-1) + 2

2) Explicit formula:
It's an AP, with first term a₁, d= common difference and n = number of term, which is the number of rows in this problem.
the value of the nth term is given by the formula is:
value of nth term  = a₁ + (n-1).d

3) Number of seats in the 12th row:

9 + (12-1).2 = 31 seats

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If DG, EG and FG are perpendicular bisectors of the sides of triangle ABC, then point G is the circumcenter of the triangle ABC and

BG = AG = CG as radii of the circumcirle.

Consider right triangle BEG. By the Pythagorean theorem,

BG^2=EG^2+BE^2\\ \\BG^2=4^2+3^2\\ \\BG^2 =16+9\\ \\BG^2=25\\ \\BG=5\ units

This gives us that

AG = BG = 5 units
