Question

In one day the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis Tennessee admitted 321 people and collected $1590. The price of admission is $6 for adults and $4 for children under 13. How many adults and how many children were admitted to the museum that day?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a + c = 321

6a + 4c = 1590

c = 321 - a

6a + 1284 - 4a = 1590

2a = 306

a = 153

c = 168
