Proposal of the Seating

Plan and the Prices of

the Seats per row

Made by:
The Bin Bang Company asked
ALAS to design a seating plan for
their newly built arena
‘NHL Arena’

The seats in the arena must be between

18,000 – 22,500
Therefore ALAS must determine:

 The number of seats in the first

row

 The number of rows required

 The number of seats in the last

row

 Total number of seats in the

arena
In this proposal ALAS must
solve this these equations
using the ‘Arithmetic
Sequence’
Using the Formula
An = A1+ ( n-1) d
And the (insert company
name) Chosen the shape of
the arena is oblong.
Number of Rows in
the arena :

 40 rows
Number of Seats
in the 1 row:
st

110 Seats
To find the Common
difference (D)
Formula: n / 2 = D

40 / 2 = 20
We are looking for the Number of
seats in the last row (Which is the
40th row)
Therefore the equation will be:
An = A1+(n-1)d
A40 = 110 + (40-1)20
A40 = 110 + (39) 20
A40 = 110 + 780
A40 = 890
The last row will consist of
890 seats
Now, We are for the total number of
seats in the arena.
Sn = n/2 (A1 + An)
Sn = 40/2 (110 + 890)
Sn = 40/2 (1000)
Sn = 20 (1000)
Sn = 20000
All in all the total number of seats in
the whole arena is:
20000 seats
