R * s = 273
r = s - 8.....s = r + 8
r(r + 8) = 273
r^2 + 8r = 273
r^2 + 8r - 273 = 0
(r - 13)(r + 21) = 0
r - 13 = 0
r = 13
r + 21 = 0
r = -21.....extraneous solution...not ur answer
r = 13
s = r + 8 = 13 + 8 = 21
so there are 13 rows.....each row containing 21 seats
Adding the equations to eliminate p would be the correct step because when you add the equations together, the variable p would cancel out and be eliminated leaving you with 2w=35 you can then solve for the value of w which you can then input to find the value of p, allowing you to solve for the values of both p and w.
It is called an equation.
Volume of a rectangular prism = l × w × h.
In this case,
V = 270 cubic feet
l = 15 feet
w = 4 ft
h = ?
Plug our values into the volume formula.
270 cubic feet = 15 feet × 4 feet × h.
Simplify the right side
270 = 60 × h.
Divide each side by 60.
4.5 = h
The height is 4.5 feet.
You must first simplify the radicals by taking out any perfect squares.
√8 + 3√2 + √32 =
√4 * √2 + 3√2 + √16 * √2 =
2√2 + 3√2 + 4√2 =
9√2
