Answer:
26 rows
Step-by-step explanation:
this is like a rectangle length×width situation.
seats per row = s
number of rows = r
s × r = 884
s = r + 8
so, we can use e.g. the second equation in the first :
(r + 8) × r = 884
r² + 8r = 884
r² + 8r - 884 = 0
the general solution to such a quadratic equation is
x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)
in our case
x = r
a = 1
b = 8
c = -884
r = (-8 ± sqrt(8² - 4×1×-884))/(2×1) =
= (-8 ± sqrt(64 + 3536))/2 = (-8 ± sqrt(3600))/2 =
= (-8 ± 60)/2 = -4 ± 30
r1 = -4 + 30 = 26
r2 = -4 - 30 = -34
a negative number did not make any sense for the number of rows, so r = 26 is our answer.
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
OK so lets do it together.
2x = -2x + 8
Subtract 8 from both sides
2x - 8 = -2x
Add 2x to both sides
4x - 8 = 0
Add 8 to both sides
4x = 8
Divide each side by 4
x = 2
Check:
4 = -4 + 8
4 = 4
correct

Answer:
D. (-2, -6) and (5,15)
Step-by-step explanation:
When you set the equations together, you get x^2-3x-10. You then set this equation equal to zero and get (x-5)(x+2) or x=-2 and x=5. Then, plug these x-values into each equation to get your y-values.
