The two inequalities formed will be:
One for ticket quantity:
x + y ≤ 600
One for funds generated via tickets:
5x + 7y ≥ 3500
Equating x to 330,
5(330) +7y ≥ 3500
y = 265
Checking if the other inequality holds true:
330 + 265 ≤ 600
595 ≤ 600
This inequality is still true so they can sell 265 tickets on the event day and cover their expenses.

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
10a. YES
10b. YES
10c. NO
10d . YES
Discussion:
If x = 12
10a. Does (3/4) 12 = 9? Does (36/4) = 9 = 9? YES
10b. Does 3x = 36? Does 3(12) = 36 = 36? YES
10c. Does 5x = 70? Does 5(12) = 60 = 70? NO
10d. Does x/3 = 4? Does 12/3 = 4 = 4 ? YES
Thank you,
MrB
