Given :
Rachel is sitting in a tree 15 feet above the ground.
A minute ago, she spotted a skunk 40 feet from the base of the tree walking closer to her. Now, the skunk is 20 feet from the base of the tree.
The diagonal line from Rachel to the skunk is the distance between them.
To Find :
How much closer is the skunk to Rachel now than it was a minute ago.
Solution :
Initial distance,

Final distance,

Therefore, skunk is ( 42.72 - 25 ) = 17.72 feet closer to Rachel now than it was a minute ago.
Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
No, she cannot use a ratio of 21 to 6. You can figure this out in a few different ways. First you can simplify down the fraction 18/3, to get 6/1. 6/1 does not equal 21/6, because 21/6 equals 7/2. However, 6/1 it does equal 36/6. You could also noticed that three doubles to make six, yet 18 does not double to make 21. :D

This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 410 and 70 using
GCF(410,70) = 10
410÷1070÷10=417

Answer:
C.) -7x - 5y = -48
Step-by-step explanation:
slope AB = (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1)
= {4-(-1)}/{4-(-3)} = 4+1/4+3 = 5/7
slope of BC = -1 ÷ 5/7 = -1 × 7/5 = -7/5
taking -7x - 5y = -48
-5y = 7x -48
y = 7x/-5 - 48
y = -7/5x -48
