Answer:
We set up 2 equations
A) C + A = 100
B) 5C + 12A = 780
We multiply A by -5
A) -5C -5A = -500 then we add B
B) 5C + 12A = 780
7A = 280
Number of Adults = 40
5C = 780 - 40*12
5C = 780 -480
5C = 300
Number of Children = 60

There are many different types of equations we can use to allow x to equal 19! Below are some examples :) See if you can come up with some on your own based off of these examples:
5x = 95.....................................Divide both sides b 5
x = 19.......................................There's one for you :)
_____________________________________________________________
1 + x - 5 = 15............................Combine like terms
x - 4 = 15..................................Add 4 to both sides
x = 19

There's just a couple of examples, but see if you can come up with some on your own and let me know if you get stuck!
Thank you for your question! I hope this helped! Have an amazing day and feel free to let me know if I can help you any further! :D
