Answer:

p = q/5 - 9r/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

5p + 9r = q

Step 2: Solve for p

Subtract 9r on both sides: 5p = q - 9r

Divide both sides by 5: p = q/5 - 9r/5

4th grade math question Joey walk 333 ft how many yards did Joey walk? At 5 yds vs 15 ft

icang [17]

111 yards

Explanation

Step 1

to solve this we need to know the equivalence

$\begin{gathered} 3\text{ ft= 1 yd} \\ 3\text{ ft}\leftrightarrow1\text{ yd} \end{gathered}$

Now, we can apply a rule of three

let x represents the number of yards in 333 ft, so

$\begin{gathered} if \\ 3\text{ ft}\rightarrow\text{ 1 yd} \\ \text{then} \\ 33\text{ ft}\rightarrow x \end{gathered}$

as the ratio is the same, we have a proportion

$\begin{gathered} \frac{3\text{ ft}}{1\text{ yd}}=\frac{33\text{ ft}}{x\text{ yd}} \\ \frac{3}{1}=\frac{33}{x} \end{gathered}$

Step 2

now, solve for x

$\begin{gathered} \frac{3}{1}=\frac{333}{x} \\ \text{cross multiply} \\ 3\cdot x=333\cdot1 \\ 3x=333 \\ \text{divide both } \\ \frac{3x}{3}=\frac{333}{3} \\ x=111 \end{gathered}$

so, the answer is 111 yards

Answer:

x = 35 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The height of the person is 5 feet.

The height of the flag and the eye is (x-5) feet.

We can calculate using trigonometry.

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{(x-5)}{30}\\\\\tan(45)=\dfrac{(x-5)}{30}\\\\(x-5)=30\\\\x=30+5\\\\x=35\ ft$

So, the value of x is equal to 35 feet. The correct option is (c).
