Answer:

500

105

Step-by-step explanation:

This question would be solved using a simultaneous equation

let

a = number of adults who bought the ticket

b = number of students who bought the ticket

c = number of senior citizens who bought the ticket

a + b + c = 670 eqn 1

10a + 4b + 3c = 5615 -- eqn 2

If 65 senior citizen bought the ticket, substitute for c in equation 1 and 2

a + b + 65 = 670

a + b = 670 - 65

a + b = 605 eqn 3

10a + 4b + 3(65) = 5615

10a +4b = 5420 eqn 4

multiply equation 3 by 10 to derive equation 5. Subtract eqn 4 from eqn 5

10a + 10b = 6050 eqn 5

          -

10a + 4b = 5420 eqn 4

= 6b = 630

b = 105

Students who bought the ticket are 105

Substitute for b in eqn 3

a + 105 = 605

a = 500

Adults who bought the ticket are 500

Answer:

ASA

Step-by-step explanation:

One pair of corresponding angles (in the bottom left/right) are already marked for us, and we're also given a pair of corresponding sides (the 8cm ones on the left and right). The two triangles have one more angle in common too - the one they're overlapping on the top corner. So, we have:

- Two pairs of congruent corresponding angles, and

- A pair of congruent corresponding sides between them,

which is enough information to call the triangles congruent by Angle-Side-Angle (ASA).
