Question 997156: A music concert charges $25 for an adult and $15 for a child. A group of adults and children attended the concert and paid a total of $190. If there were two more children than adults, how many children and adults were in the group? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x=children
y=adults
x-2=y
15x+25y=190
15x+25(x-2)=190
15x+25x-50=190
40x=240
x-6 children
y=4 adults
Children paid 15*6=$90
Adults paid 25*4=$100
