Answer:
The answer to your question is there were 88 children
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Total number of people = 188
total cost = $5040
12 more adults than seniors
number of children = ?
adults = a
children = c
Process
1.- Write equations that help to solve this problem
a + c = 188 Equation l
a = c + 12 Equation ll
2.- Solve by substitution. Substitute equation equation ll in equation l
(c + 12) + c = 188
-Solve for c
c + 12 + c = 188
2c + 12 = 188
2c = 188 - 12
2c = 176
c = 176 / 2
c = 88
3.- Conclusion
There were 88 children
7(12 1/3) + 8(12 1/3 + 1/4) = 3(6(12 1/3) - 9) - 8
12 1/3 = 12.33
1/4 = 0.25
7(12.33) + 8(12.33 + 0.25) = 3(6(12.33) - 9) - 8
86.31 + 8(12.58) = 3(73.98 - 9) - 8
86.31 + 100.64 = 3(64.98) - 8
186.95 = 186.94 - 8
186.95 ≠ 178.94
False. The x, when 12 1/3 does not work inside this equation
hope this helps
