Answer:

  66 seats

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of increase is ...

  (change in seats)/(change in rows) = (33 -21)/(7 -3) = 12/4 = 3 . . . seats/row

Then row 18 will have (18-3)·3 = 45 more seats than row 3, hence ...

  21 + 45 = 66 . . . . seats in row 18

_____

An explicit formula for the number of seats can be written as ...

  s = 21 +3(n-3) = 12 +3n

For n=18, this is ...

 s = 12 + 3(18) = 12 +54 = 66 . . . seats in row 18

The orthocenter of an obtuse triangle always lies __________.
aev [14]

The intersection of three altitudes of a triangle is called the orthocenter, while altitude is the line drawn from one of the vertex of a triangle and extends it in such a way that it cuts perpendicularly the opposite side of the same triangle.

<span> For obtuse triangle, the orthocenter always lies outside of the triangle. So option “C” is correct. </span>

Muhammad ate an average of 2.5% cookies per day
AleksandrR [38]
A = 2.5x , where x = 7 since there is 7 days in a week. So it would be 2.5(7)

B = 2.5(30) where 30 represents how many days. So he eats 75 cookies in 30 days.

Correct me if I am wrong.

A given line has the equation 10x + 2y = −2.
worty [1.4K]

The equation is \boxed{ \ y = - 5x + 12 \ or \ y = 12 - 5x} \ }

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

This case asking the end result in the form of a slope-intercept.

<u>Step-1: find out the gradient. </u>

10x + 2y = -2

We isolate the y variable on the left side. Subtract both sides by 10x, we get:

2y = - 10x - 2  

Divide both sides by two

y = -5x -1

The slope-intercept form is \boxed{ \ y = mx + c \ }, with the coefficient m as a gradient. Therefore, the gradient is m = -5.

If you want a shortcut to find a gradient from the standard form, implement this:  

\boxed{ \ ax + by = k \rightarrow m = - \frac{a}{b} \ }

10x + 2y = −2 ⇒ a = 10, b = 2

\boxed{m = - \frac{10}{2} \rightarrow m = -5}

<u>Step-2:</u> the conditions of the two parallel lines

The gradient of parallel lines is the same \boxed{ \ m_1 = m_2 \ }. So \boxed{m_1 = m_2 = -5}.

<u>Final step:</u> figure out the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the parallel line to the given line and passes through the point (0, 12)

We use the point-slope form.

\boxed{ \ \boxed{ \ y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)} \ }

Given that

  • m = -5
  • (x₁, y₁) = (0, 12)  

y - 12 = - 5(x - 0)

y - 12 = - 5x

After adding both sides by 12, the results is \boxed{ \ y = - 5x + 12 \ or \ y = 12 - 5x} \ }

<u>Alternative steps </u>

Substitutes m = -5 and (0, 12) to slope-intercept form \boxed{ \ y = mx + c \ }

12 = -5(0) + c

Constant c is 12 then arrange the slope-intercept form.

Similar results as above, i.e. \boxed{ \ y = - 5x + 12 \ or \ y = 12 - 5x} \ }

<u>Note: </u>

\boxed{Standard \ form: ax + by = c, with \ a > 0}

\boxed{Point-slope \ form: y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)}

\boxed{Slope-intercept \ form: y = mx + k}

in 2012, the population of a city was 63,000. by 2017, the population was reduced to approximately 54,100. identify any equation
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

<em></em>f(x) = 63000(0.97)^x<em></em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(0) = 63000 ---x = 0, in 2012

f(5) = 54100 -- x = 5, in 2017

Required

Select all possible equations

Because there is a reduction in the population, as time increases; the rate must be less than 1.

An exponential function is represented as:

f(x) = ab^x

Where

b = rate

rate > 1 in options (a) and (b) i.e. 1.03

This implies that (a) and (b) cannot be true

For option (c), we have:

f(x) = 63000(0.97)^x

Set x = 0

f(0) = 63000(0.97)^0 = 63000*1=63000\\

Set x = 5

f(5) = 63000(0.97)^5 = 63000*0.8587=54098.1 \approx 54100

<em>This is true because the calculated values of f(0) and f(5) correspond to the given values</em>

For option (d), we have:

f(x) = 52477(0.97)^x

Set x = 0

f(0) = 52477(0.97)^0 - 52477* 1 = 52477

<em>This is false because the calculated value of f(0) does not correspond to the given value</em>

For option (e), we have:

f(x) = 63000(0.97)^\frac{1}{5x}

Set x = 0

f(0) = 63000(0.97)^\frac{1}{5*0} = 63000(0.97)^\frac{1}{0} =undefined

<em>This is false because the f(x) is not undefined at x = 0</em>

For option (f), we have:

f(x) = 52477(0.97)^{5x

Set x = 0

f(0) = 52477(0.97)^{5*0} = 52477(0.97)^0 =52477*1= 52477

<em>This is false because the calculated value of f(0) does not correspond to the given value</em>

<em>From the computations above, only (c) </em>f(x) = 63000(0.97)^x<em> is true</em>
