![-\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-%5Cfrac%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B3%7D%7D%7B2%7D)
EXPLANATION
Given

We can find cos 150 by using

recall that
![\begin{gathered} \cos 30=\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{2} \\ \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20%5Ccos%2030%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B3%7D%7D%7B2%7D%20%5C%5C%20%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
Hence,
![\begin{gathered} \cos 150=-\cos 30 \\ =-\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{2} \\ \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20%5Ccos%20150%3D-%5Ccos%2030%20%5C%5C%20%3D-%5Cfrac%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B3%7D%7D%7B2%7D%20%5C%5C%20%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
Therefore, the value of cos 150 is
![-\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-%5Cfrac%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B3%7D%7D%7B2%7D)
Let the price of adult ticket and children ticket be a and c respectively
8a+5c=177.50 -> 24a+15c=532.5
12a+6c=255.00 -> 24a+12c=510
24a+15c-24a-12c=532.5-510
3c=22.5
c=7.5
a=17.5
(-1,-5) is the answer top left.
