Answer:

a + c = 2,600

5a + 3c = 11,400

1,800 adults and 800 children attended the game

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

a ----> the number of adults

c ----> the number of children

we know that

[tex]a+c=2,600[/tex] -----> equation A

[tex]5a+3c=11,400[/tex] ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point  (1,800,800)

see the attached figure

therefore

1,800 adults and 800 children attended the game
