Let the number of rows be = r
Let the number of seats per row be = s
we know that the number of seats is 126.
So,
..... (1)
As given, there are five more seats per row than the number of rows, so we can say that:

Putting this in equation (1)





r=-14 and r=9 (neglecting the negative value) we get r=9
And s=r+5
so, s =9+5=14
Hence, there are 5 rows and 14 seats per row.
Increase : 29.96
Decrease: 26.04
Let's consider the scenario after each year:
After the zeroth year, the population is: 120 000(1 + 0.04)⁰
After the first year, the population is: 120 000(1 + 0.04)¹
After the second year, the population is: 120 000(1 + 0.04)²
...
Thus, we can find the general rule:
After the nth year, the population is: 120 000(1 + 0.04)ⁿ
And after the 16th year, the population is 120 000(1 + 0.04)¹⁶ = 224 758 (rounded to nearest whole number)
What is the situation from the problem
