<span>There are 4 long rows and 5 short rows in the theater. x represents the number of chairs in each long row and y represents the number of chairs in each short row.
So, total number of chairs in 4 long rows= 4x
Total number of chairs in 5 short rows = 5y
Total number of chairs in the theater on a normal day = 4x + 5y
When 2 chairs are added to each long row, the number of chairs will change to (x+2).
So, total number of chairs in 4 long rows will be = 4(x+2)
When 3 chairs are added to each short row, the number of chairs will change to (y+3)
So, total number of chairs in 5 short rows will be = 5(y+3)
Thus, total number of chairs in the theater in rush day = 4(x+2) + 5(y+3)
= 4x + 8 + 5y + 15
= 4x + 5y + 23
Thus we can say the number of chairs increase by 23 as compared to a normal day.

Answer:
72.9
Step-by-step explanation:
10% off 75 gets you to 67.5
8% more than 67.5 is 72.9
X+8y=18
-5x+3y=-4
Multiply the first equation by 5
Add the two equations together
5x+40y=90
-5x+3y=-4
43y=86
Y=2
Plug y into one equation to find x
X+16=18
X=2
19/45=0.422222222........
Therefore rounded to the nearest thousandth his batting average is 0.422
Try a protractor to solve it
