The concept that is useful in order to answer this item is the concept of ratio and proportion. Let x be the height of the rock from the ground. We use the equation below to answer.
                                    5.5 ft / 18 ft = x ft / 209.5 ft
The value of x from the equation is 64 ft. Thus, they will be needing approximately 64 ft of rope.

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

A. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In a function, the inputs do not repeat.

The inputs are assigned to exactly one output for each.

Three is one of the options. Three is already an input in the given function.
