let the number of adults be x\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "students will be x+120\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "5x+3.5(x+120)=2162.5\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "5x+3.5x+420=2162.5\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "8.5x=2162.50-420\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "8.5x=1742.50\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x=1742.50/8.5\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "=205 adults\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "120+205 =325 srudents attended
