<h2><u>Part A:</u></h2>
Let's denote no of seats in first row with r1 , second row with r2.....and so on.
r1=5
Since next row will have 10 additional row each time when we move to next row,
So,
r2=5+10=15
r3=15+10=25
<u>Using the terms r1,r2 and r3 , we can find explicit formula</u>
r1=5=5+0=5+0×10=5+(1-1)×10
r2=15=5+10=5+(2-1)×10
r3=25=5+20=5+(3-1)×10
<u>So for nth row,</u>
rn=5+(n-1)×10
Since 5=r1 and 10=common difference (d)
rn=r1+(n-1)d
Since 'a' is a convention term for 1st term,
<h3>
<u>⇒</u><u>rn=a+(n-1)d</u></h3>
which is an explicit formula to find no of seats in any given row.
<h2><u>Part B:</u></h2>
Using above explicit formula, we can calculate no of seats in 7th row,
r7=5+(7-1)×10
r7=5+(7-1)×10 =5+6×10
r7=5+(7-1)×10 =5+6×10 =65
which is the no of seats in 7th row.
8 is 6.2
9 is 7
The pattern here is +0.8.
4.6 - 3.8=0.8
5.4-4.6=0.8, and so on
First, we have to find the length of each side of triangle. Equilateral triangle means 3 sides r in same length, so each side will be 21 ÷ 3 = 7
Now we need to calculate the height of the triangle. We can do this by Pythagoras theorem
Let the height be h
(7/2)^2 + x^2 = 7^2
The area should be 6.0621778265
Or u can say 6.06 corrected to 3 sig fig
