The equation is:

3 x = 15,000 where x is the number of yesterday’s attendance

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three times as many people at the baseball park today than

there were yesterday

Assume that the number of the people at the baseball park

yesterday is x

∵ The number of the people at the baseball park yesterday = x

∵ The number of people at the baseball park today is three times

   as many as the number of the people yesterday

∴ The number of people at the baseball park today = 3 x ⇒ (1)

∵ Today’s attendance is 15,000

∴ The number of people at the baseball park today = 15,000 ⇒ (2)

- Equate (1) and (2)

∴ 3 x = 15,000

- To find the value of x solve the equation:

  3 x = 15,000

The equation is:

3 x = 15,000 where x is the number of yesterday’s attendance

The equation for line r can be written as y=-1/4x+3. Line s which is parallel to lone r includes the point (-4,3). What is the e
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

y=-\frac{1}{4}x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

<u>What we need to know:</u>

  • Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form:y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0)
  • Parallel lines always have the same slope

<u>1) Determine the slope of line S using line R (m)</u>

y=-\frac{1}{4} x+3

We can identify clearly that the slope of the line is -\frac{1}{4}, as it is in the place of m. Because parallel lines always have the same slope, the slope of line S would also be -\frac{1}{4}. Plug this into y=mx+b:

y=-\frac{1}{4}x+b

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept of line S (b)</u>

y=-\frac{1}{4}x+b

Plug in the given point (-4,3) and solve for b

3=-\frac{1}{4}(-4)+b\\3=1+b

Subtract 1 from both sides to isolate b

3-1=1+b-1\\2=b

Therefore, the y-intercept is 2. Plug this back into y=-\frac{1}{4}x+b:

y=-\frac{1}{4}x+2

I hope this helps!
