How many requests an actual number, not a percent. To get the number from the percentage, assume you've got p% observations (which is 97.5%). The actual number of observations is p*900/100, that is 9 times the 97.5% or 877.5 observations (I know, odd thing you get a non-integer). I guess I got the wrong percentage (I don't do statistics just yet at school ;) )

A theater can seat 120 people. The number of rows is 7 less than the number of seats in each row. How many rows of seats are the
jeka94

Let x be the number of rows.

If the number of rows is 7 less than the number of seats in each row, then the number of seats in a row is x+7. The total number of seats is

x·(x+7).

You know that a theater can seat 120 people, then

x·(x+7)=120.

Solve it:

x^2+7x-120=0,\\\\D=7^2-4\cdot (-120)=49+480=529,\ \sqrt{D}=23,\\\\x_1=\dfrac{-7+23}{2}=8, \ x_2=\dfrac{-7-23}{2}=-15.

The number of rows must be positive, then x=8.

Answer: there are 8 rows with 15 seats at each.

shepuryov [24]
We have that
<span>n (n-1) -4

for n=1
a1=1*(1-1)-4------> a1=-4

for n=2
</span>a2=2*(2-1)-4------> a2=-2

for n=3
a3=3*(3-1)-4------> a3=2

for n=4
a4=4*(4-1)-4------> a4=8

the answer is
-4,-2, 2, 8

Since Doug’s brother has double the amount of Doug we can just multiply the amount Doug has by 2.

$3,215*2 = $6,430
