4 because on a graph it would be proportional 3,5 is going down in a slanted line so next would be 4,4 so answer is c
Answer:
a = - 4, b = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the left side and compare the coefficients of like terms on the right side.
- 3(2x² + ax + b)
= - 6x² - 3ax - 3b
Comparing like terms with - 6x² + 12x - 15
x - term → - 3a = 12 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
a = - 4
constant term → - 3b = - 15 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
b = 5

Answer:
51
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s represent the number of seats in a row. Then the number of rows is (s-9) and the total number of seats is ...
s(s-9) = 2142
s² -9s +4.5² = 2142 +4.5² . . . . . complete the square
(s -4.5) = √2162.25 . . . . . . . . take the positive square root
s = 4.5 +46.5 = 51 . . . . . . . add 4.5
The number of seats in each row is 51.
