The admission fee at an amusement park is $20 for children and $35 for adults. On a certain day, 390 people entered the park, and the admission fees collected totaled $10650. How many children and how many adults were admitted? NUMBER OF CHILDREN= ? NUMBER OF ADULTS= ?

Children = 200

Adults = 190

Step-by-step explanation:

Children = x

Adults = y

x + y = 390

x = 390 - y(1)

20x + 35y = 10650

Substituting

20(390-y) + 35y = 10650

y = 190

x = 390 - 190 = 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of children = c

Number of adults = a

Total people = 390

a + c = 390 (I)

Admission fee for 'c' children = 20 * c = 20c

Admission fee for 'a' adult = 35 * a = 35a

Total amount = $ 10650

35a + 20c = 10650 (II)

Multiply equation (I) by (-20)

(I)*(-20)  -20a - 20c = - 7800

(II)           35a + 20c = 10650    { Now add and so 'c' will be eliminated}

              15a            = 2850

a = 2850/15

a =  190

Plug in a = 190 in equation (I)

190 + c = 390

          c =  390 - 190

c = 200

Number of children = 200

Number of adults = 190

we'll this would mean that the dunk tank and the bounce house are the same for 20 hours because the 2 represents that the two activities, and the 20 represents the amount of hours they both are. so with this said, it means that the answer is c. the costs for a dunk tank and bounce house are the same for 20 hours.

c.the costs for a dunk tank and bounce house are the same for 20 hours.

hope this .
