Answer:

Ok, supongamos que en total hay N canicas.

1/5 de esas canicas se le dieron a Thales.

Entonces el resto ahora es:

1 - 1/5 = 4/5.

1/3 de esas canicas se le dieron a Arquimedes.

Entonces Arquimedes recibe:

(1/3)(4/5) = 4/15 de las canicas totales.

El resto, que eran 16, se le dieron a Pitagoras.

Ahora, las dos primeras entregas fueron:

1/5 + 4/15 = 3/15 + 4/15 = 7/15.

El resto seria:

1 - 7/15 = 8/15.

Y sabemos que el resto es igual a 16 canicas, entonces tenemos que:

(8/15)*N = 16.

De aca podemos calcular el numero total de canicas.

N = 16*(15/8) = 30

Esto quiere decir que inicialmente hay 30 canicas.

Thales recibe 30*(1/5) = 7 canicas.

Arquimedes recibe 30*(4/15) = 8 canicas.

Pitagoras recibe 16 canicas.

There were 567 people at a concert when a band started playing. After each song, only one-third of the people stayed to hear the
Solnce55 [7]
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 )
