Let the number of rows be = r

Let the number of seats per row be = s

we know that the number of seats is 126.

So, s\times r=126    ..... (1)

As given, there are five more seats per row than the number of rows, so we can say that:

s=r+5

Putting this in equation (1)

(r+5)*r=126

r^{2}+5r=126

r^{2}+5r-126=0

r^{2}+14r-9r-126=0

(r+14)(r-9)=0

r=-14 and r=9 (neglecting the negative value) we get r=9

And s=r+5

so, s =9+5=14

Hence, there are 5 rows and 14 seats per row.

this is part 2 and you just have to find the total area in sq ft and also answer how much material do you need to make 3 backpac
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

1. 1 1/8= 18/16

5/16*2= 10/16

4/16*2= 8/16

9/16= 9/16

1/2= 8/16


18/16 + 10/16 + 8/16 + 9/16 + 8/16= 53/16

Simplify:

4 & 5/16sq ft

2. All you do is multiply that by 3... so 4 & 5/16 = 53/16 53/16*3 = 159/16 = 9 & 15/16 sq ft

Rick cuts a 12-foot-long ribbon into 2 pieces. One piece is 3.5 feet longer than the other. What is the length of each piece?
GREYUIT [131]

Its impossible there is no way to solve it because x+3.5= y no number can make 12 if one number is 3.5 ft longer than the other Ignore this i dont feel like erasing this part.

144 in. 42 in. greater than the other 42 + x = y Nvm if you convert the numbers too in. the numbers are 93 + 51 = 144 and if you convert it back it would be

7.75 + 4.25 = 12
