<u>Answer:</u>

355 senior citizen tickets were sold.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Assuming a to the the ticket of adults and s to be the ticket of senior citizens, we can write two equations as:

a +s=465 --- (1)

23a+13s=7145 --- (2)

From equation 1, a=465-s.

Substitute a in equation 2 to get:

23 (465-s) + 13s = 7145

10695 - 23s +13s =7145

-10s = -3550

s = 355

Therefore, there were 355 senior citizen tickets sold.

When two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, the same-side exterior angles are supplementary. That means that their sum is 180.

Using that logic, if the two roads were parallel, then the sum of their same-side exterior angles will add up to 180. Yet their same-side exterior angles add up to 170 (130 + 40 = 170), hence they can't be parallel.

See the drawing attached below.

Using supplmenatry angles (two angles whose sum of measures add up to 180 or a straight line), we can say that:

m<DIE + m<HID = 18

40 + m<HID = 180

m<HID = 140

Similarly:

m<BHC + m<CHI = 180

130 + m<CHI = 180

m<CHI = 50

Using verticle angles therome, (when two lines intersect, the angles opposite to eachother are congruent, or have the same measure), we can say that:

m<DIE = m<GIH = 40

m<GIE = m<HID = 140

m<CHI = m<AHB = 50

m<BHC = m<AHI = 130

irakobra [83]
16*12=months
16*365=days
Then take that answer and multiply it by 24 for hours then take that number and multiply it by 60 for minutes and then take that number and multiply it by 60 for seconds.
