Let the larger number be x
So the smaller number will be x-17
Since the sum of the two numbers is 49
x-17+x=49
2x-17=49
2x=49+17
2x=66
x=33
The larger number is 33 while the smaller number is 33-17=16

wlad13 [49]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  6 children

Step-by-step explanation:

If all of the group were adults, the total cost of tickets would be 8×$10 = $80. The actual cost was $80 -62 = $18 less than that. Since each children's ticket saves $3 off the cost of an adult ticket, there were $18/$3 = 6 children's tickets.

There were 6 children in the group.

_____

If you want an equation, you can let c represent the number of children. Then the cost of tickets is ...

  8(10 -c) +5c = 62 . . . . 10-c is the number of adults

  -3c = -18 . . . . . . . subtract 80

  c = -18/-3 = 6 . . . divide by 3
