Answer:

The street light is 20 feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question depends on a proportion. Keep your height of the object in one ratio and the length of the shadow in the other.

25/x = 75/60      Notice the height of the structure is on the left. The length of the shadow is on the right. Cross multiply

75x =  60 * 25     Combine the right

75x = 1500          Divide by 75

x = 1500/75

x = 20

The street light is 20 feet tall.

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

The slope is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two points

( -1,2) and (1,-4)

We can use the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( -4 -2)/ ( 1 - -1)

   = ( -4-2)/ (1+1)

   = -6/2

   = -3
