Respuesta :
- Let r represent Rick’s height.
- Therefore, the quotient of Rick’s height and 4
- [tex] = \frac{r}{4} [/tex]
- Fred is 5 inches shorter than the quotient of Rick’s height and 4.
- Therefore, an expression that represents Fred’s height is
- [tex] \frac{r}{4} - 5 [/tex]
Answer:
[tex] \frac{r}{4} - 5[/tex]
Hope you could get an idea from here.
Doubt clarification - use comment section.
- r represents height of Rick
- Quotient of r and 4 means r is divided by 4
The expression till now
[tex]\\ \sf{:}\Rrightarrow \dfrac{r}{4}[/tex]
But we need the expression for five less than the quotient
[tex]\\ \sf{:}\Rrightarrow \dfrac{r}{4}-5[/tex]
