Answer:

  • adult £8
  • child £5

Step-by-step explanation:

If you look at the numbers you are given, you see that the first purchase has 3 more adult tickets than the second purchase, and its cost is £24 more. This means an adult ticket costs £24/3 = £8.

Two adult tickets will cost 2×£8 = £16, so three child tickets cost ...

  £31 -16 = £15

Each child ticket is then £15/3 = £5.

An adult ticket costs £8; a child ticket costs £5.

Complete the square:<br> x^2 +6x +c
victus00 [196]

You want to put this in the form (x+b)^2 + c  

To do this take half of the coefficient of b from the ordinal form which is 6/2=3 as use this as your new b

This give you (x+3)^2.  

If you foil this out you get x^2 +6x +9 so you have added 9 to the original expression so now all you need to do is subtract 9 to keep things balanced  

The final expression then is (x+3)^2 -9

<u> So c= -9</u>
