Answer:</h3>
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
Let x represent the number of adults who swam at the pool. Then (262-x) is the number of children. Multiplying these numbers by the corresponding admission charge will give the associated receipts. We are given the total of receipts, so we can write the equation ...
... 2.00x +1.50(262-x) = 470.00
... 0.50x +393.00 = 470.00 . . . . . simplify
... 0.50x = 77.00 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 393
... 77.00/0.50 = x = 154 . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
... (262-x) = 108 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .find the number of children admitted
1/10 of 1,700,000 of anything =
0.1 x 1,700,000 = <em>170,000</em> of them.
