The total number of seats in a theatre is modeled by f(x)=x^2-3x, where x represents the number of rows of seats. How many rows

are there in the theatre if it has a total of 208 seats

7 0

Answer:

16 rows

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 3x = 208

Subtract 208 from both sides

x² - 3x - 208 = 0

Factor

(x - 16)(x + 13) = 0

x = {-13, 16}

The number of rows must be positive

x = 16

4. (10 points) From the given triangle:

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

sinθ = y/r sinθ = $\frac{-6}{10} = \frac{-3}{5}$

cosθ = x/r cosθ = $\frac{8}{10} = \frac{4}{5}$

tanθ = y/x tanθ = $\frac{-6}{8} =\frac{-3}{4}$

cscθ = r/y cscθ = $\frac{-5}{3}$

secθ = r/x secθ = $\frac{5}{4}$

cotθ = x/y cotθ = $\frac{4}{3}$

explanation:

r = $\sqrt{(8)^{2}+(-6)^{2} }$

r = 10

x = 8

y = -6

r = $\sqrt{(4)^{2}+(3)^{2} }$

r = 5

x = 4

y = 3
