This question is worded slightly strangely but I believe I understand it. 
To eliminate x, multiply the second equation by 8, so that it becomes 4x + .8y= 96
Then you can subtract 4x on the top by 4x on the bottom to eliminate it.

A school trip to a museum cost $2,056. A total of 125 chaperones and students went on the trip. Adult admission to the museum co
salantis [7]

Answer:

117 students, 8 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say a adults went and s students went.

Total cost for adults = 23 for each a = 23a

Total cost for each student = 16s

Number of adults and students = a + s = 125

Total cost = 23a + 16s = 2056

a + s = 125

23a + 16s = 2056

We can solve this by solving for a and then plugging that into the other equation, making it so that there is only one variable

subtract s from both sides in the first equation

a = 125 - s

plug that into the second equation

23(125 - s) + 16s = 2056

2875 - 23s + 16s = 2056

2875 - 7s = 2056

subtract 2875 from both sides to isolate s and its coefficient

-7s = -819

divide both sides by -7 to isolate s

s = 117

a = 125 - s = 125 - 117 = 8
