The sequence is:
\n" ); document.write( "23, 26, 29, 32, . . . for 38 rows
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "This is \"+20%2A38+=+760+\" plus the sequence:
\n" ); document.write( "3, 6, 9, 12, . . . for 38 rows
\n" ); document.write( "This is:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+3n+\" where \"+n+\" is the row number , and
\n" ); document.write( "summed over the 38 rows
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "This is \"+3+\" times
\n" ); document.write( "\"+n+\" row numbers summed over the 38 rows
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The formula for the summation is:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28+n%2A%28+n%2B1+%29+%29+%2F+2+=+%28+38%2A39+%29+%2F+2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28+n%2A%28+n%2B1+%29+%29+%2F+2+=+1482+%2F+2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28+n%2A%28+n%2B1+%29+%29+%2F+2+=+741+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+3%2A741+=+2223+\"
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"+760+%2B+2223+=+2983+\"
\n" ); document.write( "There are 2,983 seats in the theater
\n" ); document.write( "hope I got it
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
