Answer:

For #5: There are 3 children and 4 adults.

Explanation:

Let x= number of children

y= number of adults

y = x + 1

x + y = 7

x + (x+1) = 7

x + x + 1 = 7

2x + 1 = 7

2x = 7 - 1

2x = 6

x = 6/2

x = 3

y = x + 1

y = 3 + 1

y = 4

Therefore, the number of children is 3 and the adults are 4.
