Answer:
Thus the last row has 119 seats.
The total number of seats in 24 rows = 1476
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of seats in each row make an arithmetic series. We will use arithmetic equation to find the number of seats in last row:
An = a1+ (n-1)d
An = 4+(24-1)5
An = 4 + (23)(5)
An = 4 + 115
An = 119
Thus the last row has 119 seats.
Now to find the sum of seats we will apply the formula:
Sn = n(a1 + an)/2
Sn = 24(4+119)/2
Sn = 24(123) /2
Sn = 1476 .....
The total number of seats in 24 rows = 1476....
F(5) = 3(5( + 2 = 17 answer
