A certain 18-quart stockpot is filled completely with water and exposed to a heat source so that the water boils away at a constant rate. The water remaining in the stockpot can be approximated by the following equation: y = 18 - 0.2x, where x is the number of minutes that the pot has been heated for 0 ≤ x ≤ 90, and y is the number of quarts remaining in the pot. According to this equation, which of the following statements is true about this stockpot?

Jasper wants to measure the altitude of his kite. He ties the kite string to a spike driven into the ground and measures the angle between the string and the ground. Then, he creates 2 similar triangles by adjusting the distance between an 8 foot pole and the spike until the angle created by a piece of string tied to the top of the pole and to the spike with the ground is the same as the angle he measured previously. The length of the string to the kite is 85 feet and the length of the string to the pole is 17 feet. Which of the following is closest to the height, in feet, that the kite is above the ground?
