Answer:

The number of adults attended was 600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of children attended

y ----> the number of adults attended

we know that

[tex]x+y=800[/tex] -----> equation A

[tex]5x+10y=7,000[/tex] ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

The solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (200,600)

see the attached figure

therefore

The number of children attended was 200 and the number of adults attended was 600
