Answer:

Equation:

15=\dfrac{1}{2}x+8

Student ticket price = $14

Step-by-step explanation:

An adult ticket = $15

Let a student ticket = $x

An adult ticket is half the price of a student ticket plus $8, then an adult ticket

=\$\left(\dfrac{1}{2}x+8\right)

Equate the prices for the adult ticket:

15=\dfrac{1}{2}x+8

Subtract 8 from both sides:

15-8=\dfrac{1}{2}x+8-8\\ \\7=\dfrac{1}{2}x

Multiply this equation by 2:

7\cdot 2=x\\ \\x=\$14

Answer:

Grace will have to pay $14 for the student ticket​.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the student ticket be = s

Let the adult ticket be = a

Given the price of adult ticket is = $15

The price of an adult ticket is half the price of a student ticket plus $8.

15= \frac{s}{2}+8

15= \frac{s+16}{2}

s+16=15\times2

s+16=30

s=30-16=14

Hence, the cost of student ticket is = $14.

Consider the line shown on the graph. Enter the
Semenov [28]

<h2>Solution -</h2>

From the graph, we concluded that line passes through the points (0, 3) and (1, 4) respectively.

So, slope of the line (m) passing through the points (a, b) and (c, d) is

m = d - b/ c - a

<h3>So, on substituting the values, we get </h3>

m = 4 - 3 / 1 - 0 = 1/1 = 1

Also, line makes an intercept of 3 units in positive direction of y - axis.

So, c = 3

<h3>So, Equation of line is given by</h3>

y = mx + c

y = 1 × x + 3

<h3>y = x + 3</h3>

<h3>Alternative Method :-</h3>

We know, Equation of line passing through the points (a,b) and (c, d) is given by

y - b = d - b / c - a (x - a)

<h3>Here,</h3>

a = 0

b = 3

c = 1

d = 4

<h3>So, on substituting these values in above result, we get :-</h3>

y - 3 = 4 - 3 /1 - 0 ( x - 0 )

y - 3 = 1/1 ( x - 0 )

y - 3 = x

<h3>y = x + 3</h3>

<h3>Different forms of equations of a straight line :-</h3>

1. Equations of horizontal and vertical lines

Equation of line parallel to x - axis passes through the point (a, b) is y = b.

Equation of line parallel to y - axis passes through the point (a, b) is x = a.

<h3>2. Point-slope form equation of line</h3>

Equation of line passing through the point (a, b) having slope m isy - b = m(x - a)

<h3>3. Slope-intercept form equation of line</h3>

Equation of line which makes an intercept of c units on y axis and having slope m is y = mx + c.

<h3>4. Intercept Form of Line</h3>

Equation of line which makes an intercept of a and b units on x - axis and y axis respectively is x/a + y/b = 1.

<h3>5. Normal form of Line</h3>

Equation of line which is at a distance of p units from the origin and perpendicular makes an angle B with the positive X-axis is x cosB + y sinB = p.

(-2+\sqrt{-5})^2\implies (-2+\sqrt{-1\cdot 5})^2\implies (-2+\sqrt{-1}\sqrt{5})^2\implies (-2+i\sqrt{5})^2 \\\\\\ (-2+i\sqrt{5})(-2+i\sqrt{5})\implies +4-2i\sqrt{5}-2i\sqrt{5}+(i\sqrt{5})^2 \\\\\\ 4-4i\sqrt{5}+[i^2(\sqrt{5})^2]\implies 4-4i\sqrt{5}+[-1\cdot 5] \\\\\\ 4-4i\sqrt{5}-5\implies -1-4i\sqrt{5}

3)

let's recall that the conjugate of any pair a + b is simply the same pair with a different sign, namely a - b and the reverse is also true, let's also recall that i² = -1.

\cfrac{6-7i}{1-2i}\implies \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by the denominator's conjugate}}{\cfrac{6-7i}{1-2i}\cdot \cfrac{1+2i}{1+2i}\implies \cfrac{(6-7i)(1+2i)}{\underset{\textit{difference of squares}}{(1-2i)(1+2i)}}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{(6-7i)(1+2i)}{1^2-(2i)^2}\implies \cfrac{6-12i-7i-14i^2}{1-(2^2i^2)}\implies \cfrac{6-19i-14(-1)}{1-[4(-1)]} \\\\\\ \cfrac{6-19i+14}{1-(-4)}\implies \cfrac{20-19i}{1+4}\implies \cfrac{20-19i}{5}\implies \cfrac{20}{5}-\cfrac{19i}{5}\implies 4-\cfrac{19i}{5}
