Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
What you are trying to do is isolate the variable x. For you to do that you have to first simplify the left side of the equation and then you solve for x.
Answer:
(a) y(x)=53+7x
(b) 179
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the first row has 60 seats and next row has 7 additional seats then we can represent it as
First row=60
Second row=60+7=67
Third row=67+7=74
The difference is always 7. If you deduct 7 from dirst row we get 60-7=53 seats
To get rhe number of seats in any row x then let y be the number of seats in row x
y=53+7(x)
For raw 1
Y=53+7(1)=60
For raw 2
Y=53+7(2)=67
Therefore, the formula for number of seats at any row will be
y(x)=53+7(x)
(b)
Using the above formula
y(x)=53+7(x)
Replace x with 18 hence
Y(18)=53+7*(18)=179 seats
