10 runners ran fewer than 4 km
To write the function correctly, it is important to assign variables correctly and understand the situation of the problem clearly. For this, we let y the number of people and x as the number of songs played.
At x = 0 y = 567
at x = 1 y = 567 - 567(1/3)
at x = 2 y = 567 - 567(1/3)(1/3)
at x = 3 y = 567 - 567(1/3)(1/3)(1/3)
Therefore, the number of people left after x songs would be represented by the equation:
y = 567 - 567(1/3)x
y = 567 ( 1- x/3 )
