An amusement park charges $7 more for an adult's admission than for a child's admission. If a group of 4 adults and 3 children spent $119 on admission, what is the price of admission for one child?

Answer:

each child would cost $13

Explanation:

7x4=28 (4 adults at $7 more)

(4x+28)+3x=119

7x+28=119

-28 -28

7x=91

/7 /7

x=13
