Step-by-step explanation:

<u>to show how many tickets were sold:</u>

x = upper floor tickets

y = main floor tickets

x + y = 2000

<u>to show total amount of revenue:</u>

25x + 40y = 62,000

<u>Finding answer using both equations:</u>

x + y = 2000

multiply each side by 25

25x + 25y = 2000 × 25

25x + 25y = 50,000

25x + 40y = 62,000

-

25x + 25y = 50,000

-----------------------------------

15y = 12,000

^ this is column subtraction

<em>^ this column subtraction is done to isolate y so we can work with one value rather than 2</em>

15y = 12,000

divide each side by 15

12,000 ÷ 15 = 800

y = 800

x + y = 2000

x + 800 = 2000

x = 1200

Therefore 1200 upper-level tickets were sold

800 main floor tickets were sold

rewona [7]
Since the data follows a normal distribution, the 68-95-97 rule can be used to describe the number of people falling under N standard deviations from the mean. Since the standard deviation is 1, hemoglobin levels of 13 -15 g/dL contains 68% of the sample, or 136 people. This means the 32 people have less than 13 g/dL and 32 people have more than 15 g/dL.

Compare the Triangle Proportionality Theorem and the Triangle Midsegment Theorem.
Alenkinab [10]
A midsegment of a triangle is parallel to one side of the triangle, and its length is one half of the length of that side.

If a line is parallel to one side of a triangle and intersects the other two sides, then it divides the sides into segments of proportional lengths.
