Yes
Explanation:
2x9=18 and 1+8=9
The pattern repeats
There are thirty seven seats in total.
ok distribute the 6 by multiplying it by 1q and -5
5=6q-30-19
Now subtract 30-19
5=6q-11
add 11 to both sides
16=6q
divide both sides by 6
q= 16/6
simplify
16/2=8, 6/2=3
q=8/3
Answer is -6. Whatever number is closer to 0 when negative will always be bigger. Good luck!
