The problem states, the Museum charges 21 for adults, $14 for seniors, and $5 for children under 12 for tours. This past sunday, the paid revenue was $9417 for 735 tickets sold. There were 43 more children than adults. How many children attended?
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Quantity Equation: a + s + c = 735
\n" ); document.write( "Value Equation: 21a +14s + 5c = 9417
\n" ); document.write( "Comparison Eq: c = a + 43
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Rearrange:
\n" ); document.write( "a + s + c = 735
\n" ); document.write( "21a +14s + 5c = 9417
\n" ); document.write( " a + 0 - c = -43
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "solve this system by any method you know to get:
\n" ); document.write( "a = 243 (# of adults)
\n" ); document.write( "s = 206 (# of seniors)
\n" ); document.write( "c = 286 (# of children)
