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
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A parallel line will have the same slope as the reference line. In this case, I don't see the "given line" as promised in the question. If it does appear, and it looks like y = 5x + 3, for example, the slope is 5 and the new line will have the same slope.
<h3>
<u>If this slope is correct</u>, we can start the equation for the parallel line that goes through point (-3,2) by starting with:</h3><h3 /><h3>y = 5x + b</h3><h3 /><h3>We need a value of b that forces the line to go through point (-3,2). We can do that by using the given point in the equation and solving for b:</h3><h3>y = 5x + b</h3><h3>2 = 5(-3) + b</h3><h3>b = 17</h3><h3 /><h3>The parallel line to y=5x+3 is</h3><h3>y = 5x + 17</h3><h3 /><h3>See attachment.</h3><h3 /><h3 /><h3 />
Yes you did, congratulations ;-)
1/2 + 1/4 is 3/4 gallons. converted into sixteenths, that is 12/16 gallons which is 12 servings
We can rewrite the expression under the radical as

then taking the fourth root, we get
![\sqrt[4]{\left(\dfrac32a^2b^3c^4\right)^4}=\left|\dfrac32a^2b^3c^4\right|](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B%5Cleft%28%5Cdfrac32a%5E2b%5E3c%5E4%5Cright%29%5E4%7D%3D%5Cleft%7C%5Cdfrac32a%5E2b%5E3c%5E4%5Cright%7C)
Why the absolute value? It's for the same reason that

since both
and
return the same number
, and
captures both possibilities. From here, we have

The absolute values disappear on all but the
term because all of
,
and
are positive, while
could potentially be negative. So we end up with
