of each ticket were sold?
2 answers:
Answer:
The number of child tickets sold was 43 and the number of adult tickets sold was 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the number of child tickets sold
y ----> the number of adult tickets sold
we know that
-----> equation A
----> equation B
Solve the system by graphing
Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs
The solution is the point (43,20)
see the attached figure
therefore
The number of child tickets sold was 43 and the number of adult tickets sold was 20

Answer:
Congruence between pentagons
Step-by-step explanation:
The relationship occurs because having two congruent Pentagons and generating a segment within them (or outside), congruence is extrapolated to the triangles generated within them. Thus, if there is congruence among the pentagons, it will exist between the formed triangles. In other words since the two pentagons are congruent, the corresponding angle pair is congruent. also the two corresponding side pairs are also congruent.
In the attached image for example, the ABCDE and KLMNO pentagons are congruent, so all of their internal division lines are also congruent (AC and KM)
