for each adult admission and ​$5

for each child. The total bill for the 152

people from a school trip was ​$1096
.
How many adults and how many children went to the​ zoo?  

Respuesta :

c - number of children
a - number of adults

c+a=152

13a - was paid for adult's tickets
5c - was paid for child's tickets

13a+5c = 1096

13a+5c = 1096
(a+c=152) * -13 ----> -13a - 13c = -15213 ---->-13a - 13c = -15213=-1976

13a+5c = 1096
-13a - 13c=-1976

8c =-880
c=110
c+a=152
110+a=152
a=42
