There are four seats in a row of a bus except the last row which has 5 seats. The total number of seatsican be written as 5 + r x 4. Determine the number of seats in a bus for each value of r.

Steve....Help 'me' understand your answer :-0 please
You asked:
Determine the number of seats in a bus for each value of r.
yet you did not provide any values of r. So, I picked one: 0
Now you pick some others and evaluate 5 + 4xr for each one.
I like to help with answers, but don't make me come up with the questions, too.
To determine the number of seats in a bus for each value of r, we can use the given equation:
Total number of seats = 5 + r x 4
We can substitute different values of r into the equation and calculate the corresponding number of seats:
For r = 1:
Total number of seats = 5 + 1 x 4 = 5 + 4 = 9
For r = 2:
Total number of seats = 5 + 2 x 4 = 5 + 8 = 13
For r = 3:
Total number of seats = 5 + 3 x 4 = 5 + 12 = 17
For r = 4:
Total number of seats = 5 + 4 x 4 = 5 + 16 = 21
Therefore, for each value of r, there are:
- 9 seats for r = 1
- 13 seats for r = 2
- 17 seats for r = 3
- 21 seats for r = 4
