The graph shows a line and two similar triangles.
What is the equation of the line?

1. a driveway has a 15° grade. if the driveway is 40 meters long, how much does the driveway rise? (nearest tenth of a meter) 2. a person located 4 miles from a rocket launch site sees a rocket at an angle of elevation of 32°. at that moment, how high is the rocket above the ground? (nearest tenth of a mile) 3.an airplane approaches an airport landing strip with an angle of depression of 12°. if the airplane is flying at an altitude of 20,000 feet, find the distance on the ground that the plane will need to land. (nearest 1,000 feet) 4.two buildings are located on opposite sides of the street, 40 meters apart. the angle of elevation from the top of the shorter building to the top of the taller building is 53°. if the taller building is 300 meters tall, what is the height of the shorter building? (nearest meter) 5.george is 187 cm tall. his son, ralph, is 142 cm tall. who casts the longer shadow. george when the sun is 65° above the horizon, or ralph when the sun is 56° above the horizon? how much longer? (nearest centimeter)

The median of a data set is the measure of center that is found by adding the data values and dividing the total by the number of data values that is the value that occurs with the greatest frequency that is the value midway between the maximum and minimum values in the original data set that is the middle value when the original data values are arranged in order of increasing (or decreasing) magnitude

Aclassmate thinks that solving a system by graphing gives an exact answer when the lines appear to cross at a grid point, but only an approximate answer when they don't. explain why this isn't true.
