Answer: 240
========================================================
Step-by-step explanation:
- 1st row = 50 seats
- 2nd row = 50+10 = 60 seats
- 3rd row = 60+10 = 70 seats
and so on.
We have the arithmetic sequence 50, 60, 70, ...
= 50 = first term- d = 10 = common difference
We'll use the formula below to also plug in n = 20 to determine how many seats there are in the 20th row.
There are 240 seats in the 20th row of the center section.
