Answer:

$18\ miles$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale on a map is equal to

$\frac{2.5}{10}\frac{inches}{miles}$

by proportion

Find the actual distance between the historical markers

Remember that on a map, the distance between two historical markers is $4.5$ inches

$\frac{2.5}{10}\frac{inches}{miles}=\frac{4.5}{x}\frac{inches}{miles}\\ \\x=10*4.5/2.5\\ \\x= 18\ miles$

The bird perched at a height of 15 feet

The bird dropped to a height of 61/3 feet when it saw a food

The current height can be calculated as follows

= 15 - 61/3

= 45-61/3

= -16/3

Hence the current height of the bird is -16/3
