A group of people go to a play adult tickets cost $8 and tickets for children cost $5. There are4 children attending the play. The total cost for tickets for the entire group is $76. How many adults attend the play?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A =adults

C = children

$8*A + $5*C = $76

So there are 4 children

$8*A + $5*4 = $76

$8*A + $20 = $76

$8*A = $76 - $20

$8*A = $56

A = 56/8 = 7

There are  7 adults attending the play.
