Answer:
Here is your answer with solutions.
It's multiplying by 2 each time 10 x 2 = 20, 20 x 2 = 40, 40 x 2 = 80.
Consider expression
First, you can factor it:

Since x is integer number, then you can see that x-1 is previous integer number (x-1 is 1 unit smaller than x).
Therefore, x-1 and x are two consecutive integers. When you have two consecutive integers, one of them is always even and one is always odd. Multiplying even integer number by odd integer number you always get even integer number.
Thus,
is always even.
it would be 18 student tickets and 12 adult tickets
18x25= 450
12x30 = 360
360+450 = 810
