The chairs in the auditorium illustrates an arithmetic sequence

  • The recursive rule is:  an = an-1 + 8; a1 = 26
  • The explicit rule is:  an = 18 + 8n
  • There are 74 seats in the 7th row
  • 840 chairs can fit the auditorium

<h3>The recursive rule</h3>

From the question, we have the following sequence:

Seats: 18, 26, 34

Rewrite as:

26 = 18 + 8

34 = 26 + 8

The above means that:

The number of seats on a row is 8 added to the the number of seats on the previous row.

Hence, the recursive rule is:

an = an-1 + 8; a1 = 26

<h3>The explicit rule</h3>

In (a), we have:

a1 = 26 and d = 8

The explicit rule is calculated using:

an = a1 + (n -1) * d

This gives

an = 26 + (n - 1) * 8

Expand

an = 26 - 8 + 8n

Evaluate the difference

an = 18 + 8n

Hence, the explicit rule is:

an = 18 + 8n

<h3>The number of seats in the row 7</h3>

This means that n = 7.

So, we  have:

a7 = 18 + 8 * 7 = 74

Hence, there are 74 seats in the 7th row

<h3>The sigma notation</h3>

We have the maximum number of rows to be 12.

So, the sigma notation would be:

\sum\limits^{12}_{n=1} {18 + 8n}

The total number of seats is:

Sn = n/2(2a + (n -1) * d)

This gives

S12 = 12/2(2 * 26 + (12 -1) * 8)

S12 = 840

Hence, 840 chairs can fit the auditorium

Find the value of x
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Last Option

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a triangle and we know its three sides.

We want to find one of your anguos. Then we use the cosine theorem.

c ^ 2 = a ^ 2 + b ^ 2 -2abcosx

Where

c = 14\\a = 11\\b = 19

Now we solve for x from the equation

c ^ 2 = a ^ 2 + b ^ 2 -2abcosx\\\\\\14^2 = 11^2 + 19^2 -2(11)(19)cosx\\\\14^2 -11^2 -19^2 = 2(11)(19)cosx\\\\-286=2(11)(19)cosx\\\\cosx = \frac{-286}{2(11)(19)}\\\\x = arcos(\frac{-286}{2(11)(19)})\\\\x = 46.8\°
