Answer: 5, 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mr. Ramirez purchased 20 concert tickets

The total price of 20 tickets is $\$225$

Concert ticket costs $\$15$ for adults and $\$10$ for children

suppose there are x adults and y children

$\therefore x+y=20\quad \ldots (i)\\\\\Rightarrow 15x+10y=225\quad \ldots(ii)$

Solving (i) and (ii) we get

$x=5,\ y=15$

So, there are 5 adults and 15 children
