given the equation square root of quantity 2x minus 1 end quantity equals 7, solve for x and identify if it is an extraneous solution.
one half; solution is extraneous
one half; solution is not extraneous
25; solution is extraneous
25; solution is not extraneous

x=25  solution is not extraneous

Step-by-step explanation:

given, =7

squaring both side we get,

2x-1=7^2

2x-1=49

2x=50

x=25  solution is not extraneous  answer

answer: - (a)

(b) 88 seats

step-by-step explanation:

given: in an auditorium, there are 22 seats in the first row and 28 seats in the second row.

thus first term=

second term=

the number of seats in a row continues to increase by 6 with each additional row.

⇒d= 6

a) given formula :

b)   let the number of seats (n) = 12

substitute n=12 in the explicit rule formed in (a)

∴there are 88 seats in 12 rows.
