Jeff is designing the seating arrangement for a concert in his high school theater. To give everyone a good view, each row must have five more seats than the row before it, and the first row can only have 12 seats. Help Jeff plan the rest of the seating by solving for how many seats are in row 25. Then explain to Jeff how to create an equation to predict the number of seats in any row. Show your work, and use complete sentences.

Its forms an AP...right,,,

This is a pattern right? y = 5x + 7

OpenStudy (xguardians):

5x means that each row increases by 5, to find a1 you solve for b. 12 = 5(1) + b b = 7

rebeccaxhawaii (rebeccaxhawaii):

d=5*

OpenStudy (xguardians):

To find 25th row: y = 5(25) + 7

OpenStudy (pawanyadav):

a(n)= 12+ (n-1)5 ..put n=25
