Question 928295: If you charge group one $3 per person, and group two $5 per person, and 63 people participated, and a total of $231 was collected, then how many people from each group participated? Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = number in group 1
y = number in group 2
---
3x + 5y = 231
x + y = 63
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
3x + 5y = 231
x + y = 63
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
