Answer: A) 45 ft

Step-by-step

The yardstick is 3ft tall since 1 yard = 3ft. It is 3 times as tall as its shadow. The tree has a 15ft long shadow. The tree should also be 3 times as tall as its shadow. The tree is 15*3ft tall, so it is 45ft tall. I attached an image of the diagram I made.

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

-2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution comes rom the formula for finding the slope of a graph: Rise/Run

In this case, the rise would be -2, because it is going down the graph 2 points. The run would be 5, because it is going to the right 5 points. Hopefully this will help you in the future.
