x = \text{number of children}

y = \text{number of adults}

60x + 50y = 1050

Since the number of adults is five times less than the number of children:

y = \frac{x}{5}

Substitute \( y \) in the original equation:

60x + 50\left(\frac{x}{5}\right) = 1050

60x + 10x = 1050

70x = 1050

x = 15

Now find \( y \):

y = \frac{15}{5}

y = 3

Final counts:

n_a = 3 \text{ (adults)}

n_y = 15 \text{ (children)}
