Answer: $5000 - $250x = y (Benjamin)
$2000 + $100x = y (Corrado)
Step-by-step explanation: Benjamin is spending $250 per month. So if number of given months is x his total spending in x number of months will be $250x. Whereas his initial amount in bank was $5000 and he is withdrawing $250 each month. So the remaining amount y spent on car expenses can be calculated with the equation as follows:
$5000 - $250x = y
Benjamin's friend Corrado is depositing $100 per month. So if number of given months is x his total deposits in x number of months will be $100x. Whereas his initial amount in bank was $2000 and he is depositing $100 each month which will add in initial amount to find y the current amount of money in bank. So the total amount y saved for college fund, can be calculated with the equation as follows:
$5000 - $250x = y
You weren't clear on the equation so I did it both ways. It didn't really matter though because both equations had the same answer. ♀️

Answer:
a = 242 adult and c = 52 children
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving as a system of equations.
a = adult
c = children
The adult and the children equal 294 people
a + c = 294
adult cost is 2.25 per adult
Total amount of adult is 2.25a because the number of adult are not given.
children cost is 1.75 per children
Total amount children is 1.75c because the number of children are not given
Total receipts $635.50.
a + c = 294 <em>multiply by -1.75</em> -1.75a - 1.75c = - 514.50
2.25a + 1.75c = 635.50 <em>does not change </em>2.25a + 1.75c = 635.50
<em>Add these equations together</em>
-1.75a - 1.75c = - 514.50
<u><em> </em></u><u>2.25a + 1.75c = 635.50 </u>
<em> </em> .50a = 121.00
a = 121.00/.50a
a = 242 adult
a + c = 294
242 + c = 294
c = 294 - 242
c = 52 children
Check: $2.25(242) + $1.75( 52) = $635 .50
$544.50 + $91.00 = $635.50
$635.50 = $635.50
