Answer:

218 adults and 104 children attended.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, you can write the following equations:

x+y=322 (1)

8.75x+6y=2531.50 (2), where:

x is the number of adults

y is the number of children

First, you can solve for x in (1):

x=322-y (3)

Then, you can replace (3) in (2) and solve for y:

8.75(322-y)+6y=2531.50

2817.5-8.75y+6y=2531.50

2817.5-2531.50=8.75y-6y

286=2.75y

y=286/2.75

y=104

Finally, you can replace the value of y in (3) to find x:

x=322-104

x=218

According to this, the answer is that 218 adults and 104 children attended.

First six shipments:
tester [92]
For problems like this, we need to find the pattern between the set of numbers to create a general equation for f(x). Given that x is the shipment number, let us first observe the first six shipments' behavior.
1  10 |
2  16 = 10 + 1(6) |
3  22 = 10 + 2(6) |
4  28 = 10 + 3(6)|  
5  34 = 10 + 4(6) |
6  40 = 10 + 5(6) |

From these, we can observe that given x number of shipments, the total number of objects would be 10 + (x-1)6 = 10 + 6x - 6 = 6x +4. Thus, given f(x), we have 

f(x) = 6x + 4
Answer: f(x) = 6x + 4
