QUESTION: How tall was the historic San Francisco Mountain using the current mountain slope to Humphrey's Peak? First then, let's estimate the slope of this historic volcano. Go to 35.3563, -111.6962 and mark down the elevation. Then, travel to Humphrey's Peak and mark down the elevation at the top. Find the difference. If the distance between the two points is 2 kilometers, take the difference in elevation and divide that by the distance to determine the slope per kilometer. Then, if the distance from Humphrey's Peak to the historic peak is 2.1 kilometers, determine how many more feet the volcano would have been if the slope was kept consistent (add the current height of Humphrey's Peak to the newfound slope x distance). Group of answer choices 4902 meters 3540 meters 4688 meters 3944 meters
