Answer:

The price of an adult ticket it $5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we would find the system of equations. We would set up two equations that will represent the situation.

Let c = price per children ticket

Let a = price per adult ticket

Santo:

5c + 1a = 16.25

Hulda:

4c + 3a = 24

5c + 1a = 16.25 -> a = 16.25 - 5c

4c + 3a = 24

4c + 3(16.25 - 5c) = 24

4c + 48.75 - 15c = 24

-11c + 48.75 = 24

       -48.75   -48.75

-11c = -24.75

/-11       /-11

c = 2.25

5c + a = 16.25

5(2.25) + a = 16.25

11.25 + a = 16.25

-11.25        -11.25

a = 5

a = $5 , c = $2.25

Product of polynomials can be done by distribution of multiplication over addition. The product of  (2x - 3)(2x^2 + 7x  - 1) is 4x^3 + 8x^2 -23x + 3

<h3>What is distributive property of multiplication over addition?</h3>

Suppose a, b and c are three numbers. Then we have:

a(b + c) = a\times b + a\times c

(a(b+c) means a multiplied to (b+c). The sign of multiplication is usually hidden when using symbols and both quantities which are in multiplication are written together without space)

The product result of the given expression is

(2x - 3)(2x^2 + 7x  - 1)  = 2x(2x^2 + 7x  - 1) -3(2x^2 + 7x  - 1) \\(2x - 3)(2x^2 + 7x  - 1)  = 4x^{1+2} + 14x^2 -2x - 6x^2 - 21x + 3\\(2x - 3)(2x^2 + 7x  - 1)   = 4x^3 + (14 -6)x^2 + (-2 -21)x + 3\\(2x - 3)(2x^2 + 7x  - 1)   = 4x^3 + 8x^2 -23x + 3

It is because when bases are same and there is multiplication, then powers add up, so we have: a^b \times a^c = a^{b+c}

Also, we've

(-ve \times (+ve) = -ve\\(-ve) \times (-ve) = +ve\\(+ve) \times (+ve) = +ve\\(+ve) \times (-ve) = -ve

where -ve, +ve are sign of operands and result.

That's why 2 \times -1 = -2

Thus,

The product of   (2x - 3)(2x^2 + 7x  - 1)  is 4x^3 + 8x^2 -23x + 3
