Answer:
26 rows
Step-by-step explanation:
this is like a rectangle length×width situation.
seats per row = s
number of rows = r
s × r = 884
s = r + 8
so, we can use e.g. the second equation in the first :
(r + 8) × r = 884
r² + 8r = 884
r² + 8r - 884 = 0
the general solution to such a quadratic equation is
x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)
in our case
x = r
a = 1
b = 8
c = -884
r = (-8 ± sqrt(8² - 4×1×-884))/(2×1) =
= (-8 ± sqrt(64 + 3536))/2 = (-8 ± sqrt(3600))/2 =
= (-8 ± 60)/2 = -4 ± 30
r1 = -4 + 30 = 26
r2 = -4 - 30 = -34
a negative number did not make any sense for the number of rows, so r = 26 is our answer.
It's 3.3 because the 2 is in the tenths place and you look at 6 and say is it over 5? Yes it is so the next number after 2 is 3 so your answer is 3.3
Well what i got was 79.3 by finding the average by adding it all together then divided it by how many numbers
(24, 12) and (36, 0). The least amount of flowering plants occurs when x=2y, and the largest amount occurs when y=0. These two points satisfy both conditions and both sum to 36.
The average of a set of data is equal to the sum of the values divided by the number of data present. So, if we have three numbers, the average would be:
let x, y and z represent the three numbers
average = x + y + z / 3 = 45
Two number are equal in value, so let x = y. Substituting the value to the expression of average,
45 = x + x + z / 3
45 = 2x + z / 3
It said that the last number is 89 so z is equal to 89.
45 = 2x + 89 / 3
135 = 2x + 89
46 = 2x
x = 23
Therefore, the two numbers are both 23.
