Step-by-step explanation:nsshs
x is the number of adults and y is the number of children.
x + y = 12
<span>14x + 10y = 140
lets multiply the first equation by -10 and then add it to the second equation:
-10x - 10y = -120
</span>14x + 10y = <span>140
</span>-----------------------
4x + 0 = 20
x = 20/4
x = 5
then substitute in the original equation:
x + y = <span>12
</span>5 + y = <span>12
</span>y = 12 - 5
y = 7
therefore there were 5 adults and 7 children

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 5x - 29
Combine like terms.
3x + 3 = 5x - 29
Subtract 3x from both sides.
3 = 2x - 29
Add 29 to both sides.
32 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2.
16 = x
