Answer :
Answer:
there are 50 seats in the auditorium
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 25 rows and the seats are counting up by 2 then you multiply 25 times 2 and you would get 50 seats
The total seats in the auditorium will total 850 seats.
What is Arithmetic progression?
The difference between every two successive terms in a sequence is the same this is known as an arithmetic progression (AP).
The arithmetic progression has wider use in mathematics for example sum of natural numbers.
Natural number = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8...
Now it has the same difference between any two consecutive terms d =2-1 = 3-2 .
Given,
Seats in first raw = 10
Seats in second raw = 12
Seats in third raw = 14 and so on
So.
Series 10, 12, 14, .... is an arithmetic progression series
First term a = 10
Common difference (d) = 12 - 10 = 2
Number of terms (n) = 25
The Sum of arithmetic series is given by
S = n/2[2a + (n-1)d]
So,
S = 25/2[2×10 + (25 - 1)2]
S = 25/2[20 + 48]
S = 25/2(68)
S = 850
Hence, The total seats in the auditorium will total 850 seats.
