(a) The explicit rule to model the sequence formed by the number of seats in each row is
(b) The 35th row has 120 seats
Step-by-step explanation:
The rule of the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is
, where
- a is the the first term
- d is the common difference between each two consecutive terms
∵ There are 18 seats in the 1st row
∵ There are 21 seats in the 2nd row
∵ 21 - 18 = 3
∵ The number of seats is increased by 3 with each additional row
- The number of seats in each row represents an arithmetic
sequence because there is a common difference between
each two consecutive rows
∴ The number of seats in each row formed an arithmetic sequence
∵ The number of seats in the first row = 18 seats
∴ a = 18
∵ The number of seats in a row continues to increase by 3 with each
additional row
∴ d = 3
- Substitute the values of a and d in the rule of nth term
∴
- Simplify the right hand side
∴
- Add like terms
∴
(a) The explicit rule to model the sequence formed by the number of seats in each row is
∵ There are 120 seat in a row
- Substitute by 120 in the rule above
∴ 120 = 15 + 3n
- Subtract 15 from both sides
∴ 105 = 3n
- Divide both sides by 3
∴ n = 35
∴ The number of the row is 35
(b) The 35th row has 120 seats

Answer:
a) 0.25
b) 0.25
c) 0.0625
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is:
Do you remember when breakfast cereal companies placed prizes in boxes of cereal? Possibly you recall that when a certain prize or toy was particularly special to children, it increased their interest in trying to get that toy. How many boxes of cereal would a customer have to buy to get that toy? Companies used this strategy to sell their cereal.
One of these companies put one of the following toys in its cereal boxes: a block (B), a toy watch (W), a toy ring (R), and a toy airplane (A). A machine that placed the toy in the box was programmed to select a toy by drawing a random number of 1 to 4. If a 1 was selected, the block (or B) was placed in the box; if a 2 was selected, a watch (or W) was placed in the box; if a 3 was selected, a ring (or R) was placed in the box; and if a 4 was selected, an airplane (or A) was placed in the box. When this promotion was launched, young children were especially interested in getting the toy airplane.
What is the probability of getting an airplane in the first cereal box?
Since the machine randomly selects toys, each toy has the same probability of being obtained in a cereal box.
Then, the total outcomes are 4 and the probability of getting an airplane in the first cereal box is 0.25 (25%).
What is the probability of getting an airplane in the second cereal box?
Two independent events do not change the probability of occurrence of one event or another.
The probability of getting an airplane in the second cereal box is 0.25 (25%).
What is the probability of getting airplanes in both cereal boxes?
P(1°∩2°)= P(1°) × P(2°) =
P(1°∩2°)= 0.0625 = 6.25%
