Answer:
The rate is 1.75 feet/seconds or 105 feet/minute.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Li walks at a constant rate of 7 feet in 4 seconds
To find the constant of proportionality, divide 7 feet by 4 seconds.
So,

1.75 ft/s is the constant of proportionality
We know that, 1 minute = 60 seconds
k = 105 feet/minute
So, the rate is 1.75 feet/seconds or 105 feet/minute.
You can use a tangent:

We have opposite = 17 and adjacent = x.

substitute:
cross multiply
multiply both sides by √3

divide both sides by 3

Use the Pythagorean theorem:
