For this case we propose a system of equations:

x: Let the variable representing the number of children in the concert

y: Let the variable representing the number of adults at the concert

According to the assistance we have:

x = 3y

According to the cost we have:

3x + 7y = 6000

Substituting the first in the second equation we have:

3 (3y) + 7y = 6000\\9y + 7y = 6000\\16y = 6000\\y = \frac {6000} {16}\\y = 375

Thus, the concert was 375 adults.

On the other hand we have:

x = 3 (375) = 1125

Thus, the concert was 1125 children.

In total they were:

375 + 1125 = 1500 people

ANswer:

The concert was 1500 people
