Answer:

Children = 51

Adults = 42

Students= 84

Step-by-step explanation:

Children = $2

Students = $3

Adults = $4

Total sales = $522

Total people who attended = 177

Adults =a

Students = s= 2a

Children = c

c+s+a = 177 (1)

2c+3s+4a=522 (2)

Substitute s=2a into the equations

c + 2a + a = 177

c + 3a = 177 (3)

2c + 3(2a) + 4a = 522

2c + 6a + 4a = 522

2c + 10a = 522 (4)

c + 3a = 177 (3)

2c + 10a = 522 (4)

Multiply (3) by 2

2c + 6a = 354 (3b)

2c + 10a = 522

Subtract (3b) from (4)

10a - 6a = 522 - 354

4a = 168

Divide both sides by 4

a= 168/4

= 42

a= 42

s= 2a

= 2(42)

= 84

s= 84

Substitute the value of s and a into (1)

c+s+a = 177 (1)

c + 84 + 42 = 177

c + 126 = 177

c = 177 - 126

= 51

c=51

Children = 51

Adults = 42

Students= 84

Answer: 1, 4, -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Coefficients are numbers that are in front of a variable. Let's first determine the terms that have variables in them.

z, 4z², -7a

Since these all have variables in the terms, we know the coefficients are 1, 4, -7.
