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.

olga55 [171]
From the table we can conclude that after 2 minutes the height of the water is increased by 4.
Example: In minute 2 it was 8 inches, in minute 4 it was 12 inches. (12-8=4)
This means that if the height of the water is increased by 4 inches for 2 minutes, then for 1 minute is increased 4/2=2 inches.
The following s<span>tatement best describes how the slope relates to the height of the water in the pool:

The radius of a square is 16 cm what is the area
sdas [7]
Radius is normally used for a circle
in a circle, radius is the distance form the center of the circle to the outer edge of the circle
area=legnth times width or in square area=legnth times legneth
since this is a square and this is a math problem, we will assume that radius=1/2legnth  so
if radius=16 then legnth =2 times 16=32
area=32 times 32=1042

area=1042 square cm or 1042 cm^2

6th grade math help me please !

First we have to figure out how much 3 bags cost using the total cost of $8.25

That means. we would do 8.25/3 and 8.25 divide by 3 equals 2.75.

Now we know that each bag costs approximately $2.75

All we have to do now is multiply 2.75 by 4 to get the cost for the total of 4  bags.

4 times 2.75 is exactly 11 dollars, if might change if theres tax.

But, the answer would be 4 bags costs $11.
