Using the equation below as a model, fill in numbers in the place of a and b to create a rational equation that has an extraneous solution.

x plus a over ax = b over x

part 1. show all work to solve for x in the equation and check the solution.

answer is  

c.

36

step-by-step explanation:

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.
