Question 1093235: attendance at the 2008 lollapalooza Festival was about 15000 more than three times the attendance at Bannaroo that year the total number of people attending those festivals was about 295,000

L = 3B+15,000
L + B = 295,000 substitute for L:
3B+15,000+B = 295,000
4B = 280,000
B = 70,000
and
L = 3B+15,000 = 3(70,000)+15,000 = 210,000+15,000 = 225,000
