x=student ticket
y=general admission tickets

X+Y=210 (*3) --> 3x+3y=630
3x+7.5y=1296
-----------------------
 3x+7.5y=1296
-3x+3y=630
-----------------------
4.5y=666
y=666/4.5
y=148

Answer:  The number of general admission tickets that were sold is 148.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a total of 210 people attended the opening night of a School Musical, where students tickets cost $3 each while general admission tickets cost $7.50 each.

The total sales were $1,296.

We are to find the number of general admission tickets that were sold.

Let x and y represents the number of student tickets and the general admission tickets respectively that were sold.

Then, according to the given information, we have

x+y=210\\\\\Rightarrow x=210-y~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

and

3x+7.50y=1296\\\\\Rightarrow 3(210-y)+7.50y=1296~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{Using equation (i)}]\\\\\Rightarrow 630-3y+7.50y=1296\\\\\Rightarrow 4.50y=1296-630\\\\\Rightarrow 4.50y=666\\\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{666}{4.50}\\\\\Rightarrow y=148.

Thus, the number of general admission tickets that were sold is 148.

For what values of x and y must the figure have in order to be parallelogram?
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

y = 10°

x = 64°

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelogram is a quadrilateral with the opposite sides parallel to each other. Opposite sides are equal in length. Opposite angles are equal in a parallelogram.

For the figure to be a parallelograms, since opposite angle are equal

12y + 8 = 2x

2x - 12y = 8 ...................(i)

2x + 5y + 2 = 180(supplementary angle)

2x + 5y = 178..............(ii)

combine the equation

2x - 12y = 8 ...................(i)

2x + 5y = 178..............(ii)

make x subject of the formula in equation (i)

2x - 12y = 8 ...................(i)

2x = 8 + 12y

x = 4 + 6y

put the value of x in equation (ii)

2x + 5y = 178..............(ii)

2(4 + 6y) + 5y = 178

8 + 12y + 5y = 178

8 + 17y = 178

17y = 170

divide both sides by 17

y = 170/17

y = 10°

Put the value of y in equation (i)

2x - 12y = 8 ...................(i)

2x - 12(10) = 8

2x - 120 = 8

2x = 128

x = 128/2

x = 64°
