Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the vertical distance of the guy wire by the horizontal distance of the guy wire to find the slope of one of the guy wire.

We have

d = 100ft ----- horizontal distance

h = 70ft ------- vertical distance

Then,

m = h/d

Put the values in the given formula:

m = 70/100

m = 0.7

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