There are

\dbinom{2n}2 = \dfrac{(2n)!}{2! (2n-2)!}

ways of pairing up any 2 members from the pool of 2n contestants. Note that

(2n)! = 1\times2\times3\times4\times\cdots\times(2n-2)\times(2n-1)\times(2n) = (2n-2)! \times(2n-1) \times(2n)

so that

\dbinom{2n}2 = \dfrac{(2n)\times(2n-1)\times(2n-2)!}{2! (2n-2)!} = \boxed{n(2n-1)}

the theaters sell tickets for a concert. tickets for the lower level are $35 each and tickets for the upper level are $25 each.
nasty-shy [4]
Equation 1 for tickets sold:
$35x + $25y = $10,250

Equation 2 for quantity (number #) of tickets sold:
x + y = 350

Use substitution method:

y = 350 - x

35x + 25 (350 - x) = $10,250

35x + $8750 - 25x = $10,250

10x + $8750 = $10,250
- $8,750 -$8,750

10x = 1,500

x = 150

y = 350 - 150

y = 200

Check the answers:

$35 (150) + $25 (200) =

$5,250 + $5,000 = $10,250
