Answer: 220

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Children (x): $2

Teens (y): $3, $\frac{3}{4}x$

Adults: (z): $5

Quantity: x + y + z = 570 ⇒ x + $\frac{3}{4}x$ + z = 570 ⇒ 1.75x + z = 570

Cost: 2x + 3y + 5z = 1950 ⇒ 2x + 3 $(\frac{3}{4}x)$ + 5z = 1950 ⇒ 2x + 2.25x + 5z = 1950 ⇒ 4.25x + 5z = 1950

Qty: 1.75x + z = 570 → 5(1.75x + z = 570) → 8.75x + 5z = 2850

Cost: 4.25x + 5z = 1950 → -1(4.25x + 5z = 1950 → <u> -4.25x - 5z</u> = <u>-1950 </u>

4.50x = 900

x = 200

Teens (y): $\frac{3}{4}x$

y = $\frac{3}{4}(200)$

= $\frac{600}{4}$

= 150

Quantity: x + y + z = 570

200 + 150 + z = 570

350 + z = 570

z = 220
