Let s_n denote the number of seats in the n-th row. s_n is arithmetic, so

s_n=s_{n-1}+d

for some constant d.

We're told s_5=22 and s_{10}=37, so that

s_{10}=s_9+d

s_{10}=(s_8+d)+d=s_8+2d

s_{10}=(s_7+d)+2d=s_7+3d

and so on up to

s_{10}=s_5+5d\implies37=22+5d\implies5d=15\implies d=3

The pattern continues:

s_5=s_4+3

s_5=(s_3+3)+3=s_3+2\cdot3

and so on up to

s_5=s_1+4\cdot3\implies22=s_1+12\implies\boxed{s_1=10}

Find the area of the figure.EXPlAIN THE STEPS!!!!
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

30.56 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the area of the composite shape, we need to:

  1. Divide the shape into two smaller "known" shapes (Refer to image).
  2. Determine the area of those "known" shapes.
  3. Add the area of the known shapes to obtain the area of the figure.

<u>Determining the area of shape 1 (Rectangle 1):</u>

⇒ Area of rectangle = Lenght × Breadth

⇒                               = 2.1 × 4.8

⇒                               = 10.08 yd²

<u>Determining the area of shape 2 (Rectangle 2):</u>

⇒ Area of rectangle = Lenght × Breadth

⇒                               = 6.4 × 3.2

⇒                               = 20.48 yd²

<u>Determining the area of the figure:</u>

⇒ Area of figure = Area of rectangle 1 + Area of rectangle 2

⇒                         = 10.08 + 20.48

⇒                         = 30.56 yd²

Which point lies on the circle represented by the equation (x+5) + (y-9) = 8
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

(-5,9+√8)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways in which you can find a point that lies in the circle. One of them is to do y the subject of the formula, and another one is to determine the center of the circumference, and with the information of the radius, you can sum this value upward or downward.

the general equation of a circle is:

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

with center at (h,k)

you have the following equation:

(x+5)^2+(y-9)^2=8\\\\h=-5\\\\k=9\\\\r=\sqrt{8}

Then, the center is (-5,9)

if you sum the value of the radius in one of the fourth directions (up, down, left, right), for example upward you have

(-5,9+r)=(-5,9+\sqrt{8})

Then, one point that lies in the circle is (-5,9+√8)

While looking at some reports, a store manager notes that televisions that retail for $475 and up costing customers $513 once th
Mekhanik [1.2K]

The sales tax percentage of the store manager report is 7.41%

<h3>How to solve for the sales tax percentage</h3>

Customers are subject to a charge known as sales tax when they buy goods and services.

It is a pass-through tax, which means you must collect it from clients and send the money to your state or local government. the seller do not contribute sales tax.

The sales tax is first calculated by

= price after tax - price before tax

= 513 - 475

= 38

sales tax percentage is calculated using the formula

= (Tax amount / Price before tax) × 100%

= (38 / 513) * 100

= 7.4074

= 7.41%
