Answer:

50men working in 5days will lay 100 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

If 20men working for 10days lays 500meters

then, 1 man will lay 10,000 meters in 10 days

also, 1 man will lay 1000 meters in 1 day

If 1 man lays 1000 meters in 1 day,

Then, 50 men will lay (1000 meters / 50 );  20 meters in 1 day

also, the same 50 men will lay (20 meters x 5days); 100 meters in 5 days.

Therefore, 50men working in 5days will lay 100 meters

Reference angle = <P = 49° (angle of elevation)

Opposite side = 500 ft

Adjacent side = d = ?

Apply trigonometric function, TOA.

This:

Tan P = opp/adj

Tan 49 = 500/d

d × Tan 49 = 500

d = 500/Tan 49

crystal is picking blueberries.so far,she has filled 2/3 of her basket,and the blueberries weigh 3/4pound .the equation 2/3w=3/4
vesna_86 [32]
In order to do this, we multiply both sides be the amount that would make the left side equal to 1.  This number is the reciprocal of the fraction, so we multiply both sides by 3/2.  This is equal to:

w = 9/8

So, the blueberries in crystal's basket will weigh 9/8 pounds when it is full.
