I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :) A music concert is organized at a memorial auditorium. The first row of the auditorium has 16 seats, the second row has 24 seats, the third row has 32 seats, and so on, increasing by 8 seats each row for a total of 50 rows. Find the number of people that can be accommodated in the sixteenth row. (Show work)

Hey there! :)

f(16) = 136 seats.

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation can be expressed as an explicit function where 'n' is the row number.

The question also states that the number of seats increases by 8. Use this in the equation:

f(n) = 16 + 8(n-1)

Solve for the number of seats in the 16th row by plugging in 16 for n:

f(16) = 16 + 8(16-1)

f(16) = 16 + 8(15)

f(16) = 16 + 120

f(16) = 136 seats.

the answer is 288..

hope this
