Let x = Initial Price
If we increase x by 5%, we are adding 0.05x
Therefore, the new price = x + 0.05x = 1.05x
If the ticket has increased by £2.30, £2.30 is 5% of the initial price, or 0.05x
0.05x = 2.30
x = 2.30/0.05
x = 46
Therefore, the price of the ticket before the increase was £46
You can also check this backwards by doing 46*0.05 = 2.30
You can only add x terms together only if they have the same exponent. For example you can add 2x^2 and x^2 but you cannot add x^2 and x^3.
In this particular problem, you can add 4x^4 and x^4, and x and 8x. So,

(x + 4x^4) + (x^4 - 2 + 8x)
</span>= 5x^4 + 9x -2
