Lacey decides to take her five year old son to the history museum. the price for the child's ticket is 2.75 dollars less than the price for the adult's ticket. if you represent the price for the child's ticket using the variable "x," how would you write the algebraic expression for the adult's ticket price?

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}  

5⋅2
