Mr brown and his 2 children are going to london by train an adult ticket costs £24.
an child ticket costs £12

mr brown has a family railcard

family railcard gives : 1/3 off adult tickets

60 percent off child ticket

work out the total cost of the tickets when mr brown uses his family railcard

The total cost will be equal to 25.6£

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this question we will have to figure out the cost of the adult ticket and the children tickets when the railcard is used. For this we do the following.....

Let "a" be the cost of the adult ticket after using the railcard

Let "b" be the cost of the children ticket after using the railcard.

a = 24£ - (24£ x ) = 24£ - 8£ = 16£

b = 12£ - (12£ x ) = 12£ - 7.2£ = 4.8£

Now the total cost will be equal to the sum of an adult ticket and two children tickets after the railcard is used, so .....

Total cost = a + 2b = 16£ + 2(4.8£)= 16£ + 9.6£ = 25.6£

the correct answer is 5

step-by-step explanation:

the original amount doesn't ''re just looking for the time it takes for 1/2 of the substance to we have

(1/2) =)     take the ln   of both sides

ln (1/2)   = )   and we can write

ln(1/2) = ) lne     and lne   = 1     so we have

ln(1/2) = -.1092t     divide both sides by -.1092

t = ln(1/2)/-.1092 = about 6.347 days = about 6.3 days (rounded)
