21000 people paid for general admission and 6000 paid for reserved seats. This is solved by making 2 equations. Out of 27000 people who were at game, x of them paid for general admission and y for reserved seats, thus
x + y = 27000
As said, daily receipts were 204000$. As reserved seat is 13$, y of them gave 13$ each (y*13$) and x of them gave 6 for general admission(x*6) and those two add up and we get second equation
13y + 6x = 204000.
This can be solved by transforming first equation into x = 27000 - y and then replacing the x in second.
13y + 6*(27000 - y) = 204000
13y + 162000 - 6y = 204000
7y = 42000
y = 6000
x + 6000 = 27000
x = 27000 - 6000 = 21000

Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope
So if line Q has a slope of 3
Line R which is parallel to Q must have a slope of 3
Answer:
The length of the longer base he 35 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to find the length of the longer base of the trapezoid
Mathematically, we can find the area using the formula;
1/2( a + b) h
where a is the shorter base
b is the longer base
h is the height
Let the shorter base be x
The other base is 5 times this length and that makes 5 * x = 5x
Height is the average of both bases;
(x + 5x)/2 = 6x/2 = 3x
Substituting these in the formula, we have ;
1/2(x + 5x)3x = 441
3x(6x) = 882
18x^2 = 882
x^2 = 882/18
x^2 = 49
x^2 = 7^2
x = 7
But the longer base is 5x and that will be 5 * 7 = 35 units
