Jake is 1.25 meters tall. At 11a. m he measures the length of a trees shadow to be 16.45 meters. He stands 11.5 meters away from the tree, so that the tip of his shadow meets the tip of the tree’s shadow. Find the height of the tree to the nearest hundredth of a meter

Where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept of the line, or the y-coordinate of the point at which the line crosses the y-axis. to write an equation in slope-intercept form, given a graph of that equation, pick two points on the line and use them to find the slope. this is the value of m in the equation.
