To calculate the number of children and adult admitted:
In an amusement park admission fee is 1.5 dollars for children
In an amusement park admission fee is 4 dollars for adults
Let x represent number of Children
Let y represent number of Adult
Step 1: First equation: Children cost $1.50 and Adults cost $4.00. In order to find the amount of money a group of children will cost, we multiply the number of children, x, by 1.5. This is represented by 1.5x. For adults, who cost 4 dollars to enter, we will use 4y. The total amount of money made on the given day was $952. To get this amount, we must add 1.5x and 4y.
Step 2: Second equation: Total amount of people on the given day is 283. To get this number, we must add together x and y, or the number of children and adults.
System of equation
substitute the value of y in equation 11
Therefore the number of children admitted = 128 , while the number of adult admitted = 190
