You combined the x’s together then u wanna move all the x’s to one side then after that you would want to do the opposite of -7, so then you add 7 to 10 and then you would divide everything by 2 and get x=8.5
Question 2 the answer is 4
389 children and 224 adults were at the pool that day.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of one child ticket = $1.75
Cost of one adult ticket = $2.25
Total people = 613
Total receipts worth = $1184.75
Let,
Number of children = x
Number of adults = y
According to given statement;
x+y=613 Eqn 1
1.75x+2.25y=1184.75 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 1.75

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

Dividing both sides by 0.50

Putting y=224 in Eqn 1

389 children and 224 adults were at the pool that day.
