Step-by-step explanation:The admission fee at a small fair is $1.50 for children and $4.00 for adults. On a certain day, 2200 people enter

the fair and $5050 is collected. How many children and how many adults attended?

======

Equations:

a + c = 2200 tickets

4a+1.5c = 5050 dollars

-------------------------------

Modify for elimination::

4a + 4c = 4*2200

4a + 1.5c = 5050

--------------------

Subtract and solve for "c":

2.5c = 3750

-------

c = 3750%2F2.5 = 1500.

Answer. 1500 children and 2200 - 1500 = 700 adults
