Answer:
4n (3n - m)
Step-by-step explanation:
See what they both have, pull it to the outside, put what is left inside.
4n (3n - m)
1 - 2 - 3 - 5. I think that’s right but I’m not sure
Quarters = x
dimes = 196 - x
10(196 - x) + 25x = 3940
1960 - 10x +25x = 3940
1960 + 15x = 3940
15x = 1980
x = 132
169 - 132 = 64
Therefor there are 132 quarters and 64 dimes
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
