R * s = 273
r = s - 8.....s = r + 8
r(r + 8) = 273
r^2 + 8r = 273
r^2 + 8r - 273 = 0
(r - 13)(r + 21) = 0
r - 13 = 0
r = 13
r + 21 = 0
r = -21.....extraneous solution...not ur answer
r = 13
s = r + 8 = 13 + 8 = 21
so there are 13 rows.....each row containing 21 seats
Answer:
Height=9/2=4.5
A=1/2*b*h
A=1/2*6*4.5
A=13.5
13.5*2=27
The area of the shaded region is 27.
To find is out put it like this 2 8
5 x
you multiple so 2 times what eduals 8 then you take that and multiply by 5
I think if I did it right it should be B
