A used car lot has. a large balloon tied down to stakes 1500 feet apart. the angle of elevation from the stake at the west end of the lot to the balloon is 50 degrees, and the angle of elevation from the stake at the east end of the lot to the balloon is 72 degrees. What is the altitude of the balloon.

i need the options

step-by-step explanation:

c

step-by-step explanation:

proportions are fractions that equal to each other. so if two fractions are the same, they are proportional.

let's check the answers to see if they are proportional.

question a is not proportional because you can't turn 1.5/3 to 3/9. if you try to multiply 1.5/3 by 2 or 3, you wont get 3/9. it's impossible to make the fractions the same.

question b is not proportional because you can't turn 22/33 to 4/6. 33 can't go into 6.

question c is proportional because when you multiply 2 and 3 by 71, you would get 142/213, and those fractions equal to each other

question d is proportional because when you divide 14 and 7 by 2, you would end up with 7/3.5, and those fractions equal to each other.
