Your answer will be 7.50. What I did was take 1.25 and times it by 6.
D.
Slope is rise over run and in this case it is -15/ 5 so when it is reduced you get -3 as your slope
784/ 93 = 8.43010752688
93 * <span>8.43010752688 = 784</span>
Answer: 6.75 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, the ratio of the side of the similar triangle = 2 : 3
Thus, by the property of similar triangle,
The ratio of the altitudes of the triangle = 2 : 3
Let the altitude of smaller triangle = 2 x
And, the altitude of larger triangle = 3 x
Where x is any number.
According to the question,
2 x = 4.5
x = 2.25
Therefore, the altitude of larger triangle = 3 × 2.25 = 6.75 feet
