Answer:
136 general admission tickets were purchased, and 300 upper reserved tickets were purchased.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is solved using a system of equations.
I am going to say that:
x is the number of general admission tickets purchased.
y is the number of reserved tickets purchased.
There were 436 tickets purchased for a major league baseball game.
This means that , or also,
The general admission tickets cost $6.50 and the upper reserved tickets cost $8.00. The total amount of money spent was $3284.00.
This means that . Since
And:
136 general admission tickets were purchased, and 300 upper reserved tickets were purchased.
First, we circumscribe a rectangle about the parallelogram as shown in the figure. The size of this rectangle is 10 by 6 clearly.
Between the rectangle and the parallelogram 4 triangles are formed, 2 by 2 congruent. We are going to remove the area of these 4 triangles from 60 (the area of the rectangle) and thus get the area of the parallelogram.
Note that one of the triangles has side lengths 4; 4. Thus, the area of this triangle is (4*4)/2=16/2=8 (square units.)
Each of the other two non-congruent triangles to the above have sides of length 6;2, so the area of each is (6*2)/2 =6 (square units.)
Thus, the area of the parallelogram is 60-8-8-6-6=60-16-12=60-28=32 (square units.)
Answer: 32 (square units.)
