Going vertically is called the column. The column is listed
first. Going horizontally is called the row. The row is listed
second.
For the one above. . .there are 2 rows, so 2
would be listed first. There are 3 columns,
so 3 would be listed second. The answer is:

At a zoo, kids ride a train for 25 cents. Adults ride it
for $1. Senior citizens for 75 cents. On a given day:
1,400 paid a total of $740 for the rides. There were
250 more kids than all other riders. Find the total
amount of children, adults, and senior citizens.
1st step: assign letters for each variable.
 x=children
 y=adults
 z=senior citizens
 2nd step: set up equations.
.25x+y+.75z=740
x+y+z=1400
x-(y+z)=250
.25 for each kid, 1 dollar
for each adult, .75 for each
senior citizen.
All three of the variables =
1,400 total paid
250 more kids than all
other riders.
