Answer:
Options C and E
Step-by-step explanation:
Option A. Circle
We can't get a cross section in the form of a circle.
Option B. Cube
We can't get a cross section in the form of a cube.
Option C. Rectangle
When we slice a rectangular pyramid parallel to the base but not through the vertex, we get a Rectangle.
Option D. Square
We can not get a square by slicing a rectangular pyramid.
Option E. Triangle
By slicing a rectangular pyramid perpendicular to the base and passing through the vertex we can get the cross section in the form of triangle.
Options C and E will be the answer.
Answer:
1806 seats.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Row 1 = 24 seats
Row 2 = 27 seats
Row 3 = 30 seats
Total roll = 28
Total number of seat =?
From the above data, we can liken the roll to be in arithmetic progress.
Also, we are asked to determine the total number of seats in the theater.
Thus the sum of the sequence can be written as:
Roll 1 + Roll 2 + Roll 3 +... + Roll 28 i.e
24 + 27 + 30 +...
Thus, we can obtain obtained the total number of seats in the theater by applying the sum of arithmetic progress formula. This can be obtained as follow:
First term (a) = 24
Common difference (d) = 2nd term – 1st term
Common difference (d) = 27 – 24 = 3
Number of term (n) = 28
Sum of the 28th term (S₂₈) =?
Sₙ = n/2 [2a + (n –1)d]
S₂₈ = 28/2 [2×24 + (28 –1)3]
S₂₈ = 14 [48 + 27×3]
S₂₈ = 14 [48 + 81]
S₂₈ = 14 [129]
S₂₈ = 1806
Thus, the number of seats in the theater is 1806.
