P=45,000−1,000m

People start to leave the stadium at the end of a football game. The number of people, PPP, that are left in the stadium mmm minutes after the end of the game is given by the equation above. How many people were present when the game ended but before people started to leave?

Answer provided by our tutors

The moment the game ended m = 0. We plug this value into the equation P=45,000−1,000m:

P=45,000−1,000*0

P=45,000 people

There were 45,000 people present on the stadium when the game ended.
