Question2 4. The admission fee at a small fair is $\$ 1.50$ for children and $\$ 4.00$ for adults. On a certain day, $\$ 5,050$ is collected. If 1,00 adults attended the fair, write and solve a linear equation to find the number of children that attended. $x=1.50 \quad y=4.06$ $c=$ toal
Equation: $1.50 x+4 y=5,050$ Solution:

Studdy Solution
Solve the equation for the unknown variable $x$.
First, calculate the total revenue from adults:
$$4.00 \times 1,000 = 4,000$$
Substitute this back into the equation:
$$1.50x + 4,000 = 5,050$$
Subtract 4,000 from both sides to isolate the term with $x$:
$$1.50x = 5,050 - 4,000$$ $$1.50x = 1,050$$
Divide both sides by 1.50 to solve for $x$:
$$x = \frac{1,050}{1.50}$$ $$x = 700$$
The number of children that attended the fair is:
$\boxed{700}$
