Answer:

16 players.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Of all the players, 12 choose a bottle of water, which was 3/4 of the total number of players.

Question asked:

Write and solve an equation to determine p, the total number of players at the baseball game.

Solution:

Total number of players = p

Out of 12 total player 12 choose a bottle of water which is \frac{3}{4} of the total number of players and hence the equation will be:

12 = \frac{3}{4}\ ofp\\

12 =\frac{3}{4} \times p\\12 = \frac{3p}{4}

By cross multiplication:

3p =12\times4\\3p =48

Dividing both sides by 3

p = 16

Therefore, the the total number of players at the baseball game is 16.

Answer:

p = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total number of players = p

According to given scenario:

p - 12 = 3/4p

By simplifying

Taking terms with p on left and constants on right

p - 3/4p = 12

By taking LCM for left side to make denominators same

4/4*p -3/4p = 12

(4p -3p)/4 = 12

1p/4 = 12

Multiplying both sides by 4 we get

p = 12 * 4

p = 48

So total number of players is 48

i hope it will help you!

How many planes contain each line and point?
nikitadnepr [17]

There are infinite many planes that contain each line and point

<h3>How to determine the number of planes?</h3>

The given parameters are given as:

  • Line KL and G
  • Line JI and G

As a general rule, a line and a point can be used to draw as many planes as possible

This means that there are infinite many planes possible

Hence, there are infinite many planes that contain each line and point
