Galilean

Arithmetic Sequence

rows ---------32-n

first term ------------26-----------a

d---------------------------4

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

=32/2 (2*26+(31)4)

=16(52+124)

=16(176)

=2816 seats

Upendo

Total rows of seats, n = 30 rows of seats

First row, A1 = 22 seats

Second row, A2 = 26 seats

Third row, A3 = 30 seats

d = A3 - A2 = A2 - A1 = 4

then,

Sn = n/2 (2A1 + (n - 1)d)

Sn = 30/2 (2*22 + (30 - 1)4)

Sn = 15(44 + 116)

Sn = 2400 people
