Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.
Change 5'9" to 5.75 ft; let t = height of the tree
You can use ratio here (corresponding sides of similar triangles):
5 x 75/ 5 = t/165
cross multiply
5t = 5.75*165
5t = 948.75
t = 948.75/ 5
t = 189.75 ft or 189 ft 9 inches

Answer:

The average change in temperature per hour was -8°F.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation 48-(-16) we know that the temperature dropped by 64°F.

$48-(-16)=64$

We now know that the temperature dropped by 64°F in a period of 8 hours. Using the equation -64/8 we can find the average change in temperature per hour.

$\frac{-64}{8} = -8$

Therefore, the average change in temperature per hour was -8°F.
