Final Answer:
The number of adults who paid was 174, and the number of seniors was 29.
Explanation:
Let x be the number of adults and y be the number of seniors.
The total revenue equation is 8x + 6y = 2112.
The total number of people equation is x + y = total number of people.
Given that the total number of people paid $318, x + y = 318.
Solve the system of equations:
8x + 6y = 2112 (Equation 1)
x + y = 318 (Equation 2)
Solve Equation 2 for x: x = 318 - y.
Substitute x into Equation 1: 8(318 - y) + 6y = 2112.
Solve for y to find the number of seniors.
Substitute y into x = 318 - y to find the number of adults.
