It seems like the defined of purchase is mapping(address => uint) purchase, so I think maybe the mapping can not use += with the type uint. So maybe it should be:

purchase[msg.sender] = purchase[msg.sender] + numberoftickets;

BTW, I think in the compile version of 0.7.x, you had better use the library SafeMath.sol to avoid overflow and underflow
