Answer 1

Answer:

There are total 3,520 seats in the theater.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A theater has 40 rows and there are 10 seats in first row. Each row has four seats more than the previous row.

Row                    Number of seat

1                                    10

2                                 10+4=14

3                                 14+4=18

.....

The number of seat increase in A.P.

Sum of A.P series $S_n=\frac n2\{2a+(n-1)d\}$

Here a= 10, d=4,n=40.

$S_{40}=\frac {40}2\{2.10+(40-1)4\}$

     =20(20+39.4)

     =3,520

Total number seats are 3,520 in the theater.
