Answer:

5. Proportion states that the ratios or fractions are equal

Use Conversion

1 mm = 0.001 m

Based on the statement

If the city of Miami is 1.83 above sea level

Also,

Sea level rises in 1 year = 4 mm = 0.004

Let x be the years of steady sea leve;

by definition of proportion:

1/0004 = x/ 1.83

cross multiply: 1.83 = 0.004x

Divide both sides by 0.004

457.5 = x

457.5 years of steady sea level rise at 4mm/year will flood the city

6. There will be increased flooding which will cause problems which would impactliving conditions in the area.
