Question

Algebra There were 4 times the number of students in fourth grade at the basketball game.How many students attended the basketball game? Write and solve an equation.

Answer 1

Answer:

200 students attended the basketball game

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question in the attached figure

Let

x ------> the number of students in fourth grade

s -----> the number of students at the basketball game

we know that

The number of students at the basketball game is four times the number of students in fourth grade

so

The linear expression is

$s=4x$ -----> equation A

$x=50\ students\ in\ fourth\ grade$ -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

$s=4(50)$

$s=200\ students\ at\ the\ basketball\ game$

therefore

200 students attended the basketball game
