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

Step-by-step explanation:

E

working ;

(3x+2)^2

*Apply Perfect Square Formula : (a+b) =a^2+2ab+b^2

a = 3x,b = 2

(3x)^2 + 3x.2+2^2

If m angle B=m angle D=41, find m angle C so that quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram
Charra [1.4K]

ANSWER

139°

EXPLANATION

One of the interior angle properties of a parallelogram is that adjacent interior angles are supplementary.

This means that, the adjacent interior angles add up to 180°.

If

m \angle \: B = m \angle \: D = 41

Then

m \angle \: C +  m \angle \: D = 180 \degree

OR

m \angle \: B +  m \angle \:C= 180 \degree

\implies41 \degree +  m \angle \:C= 180 \degree

\implies m\angle \:C= 180 \degree - 41 \degree  = 139 \degree

How do you factor (y^4-x^9) ? <br><br> Thank you
polet [3.4K]
So since you know that x^2-1 is equal to (x-1)(x+1),
you can figure that this factors to
(y^2-x^3)(y^2+x^3)
because you know how the difference of two squares formula, stated on the top line of this answer.
