Answer:

The slope of one of the guy wires is m=0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The slope of one of the guy wire is equal to divide the vertical distance of the guy wire by the horizontal distance of the guy wire

we have

[tex]d=100\ ft[/tex] ----> horizontal distance

[tex]h=70\ ft[/tex] ----> vertical distance

so

[tex]m=\frac{h}{d}[/tex]

substitute the given values

[tex]m=\frac{70}{100}=0.7[/tex]
