One of the product rules for exponents was used.
Or, you can consider that the definition of an exponent and the associative and commutative properties of multiplication were used.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. a² - ( b ² - 2bc + c² ) = a ² - b ² + 2bc - c²
2. 8p² - 18 q²
3. 3ab² - c²d + 3ab - b²c²
4. x² - 2x + 1
Let the number of ride tickets = x tickets.
And the total cost is given by y.
Fair charges $1.25 per ticket for the rides.
Johnny bought = 25 tickets.
Therefore, cost of 25 tickets @ $1.25 per ticket = 25 × 1.25 = $31.25
Total amount spent at the fair = $43.75.
Fair admission charge = Total amount spent - Cost of 25 tickets = 43.75 - 31.25 =$12.50.
Therefore, total cost of the fair = Fix fair admission charge + total cost of x number of tickets @1.25 each.
y = 12.50 + 1.25x.
Therefore, y = 12.50 + 1.25x is the linear equation that can be used to determine the cost for anyone who only pays for x ride tickets and $ 12.50 fair admission.
