Simplift the ratio of 6 cups to 4 quarts.

$\begin{gathered} \frac{6}{4}=\frac{2\times3}{2\times2} \\ =\frac{3}{2} \end{gathered}$

So in simplest form ratio is 3 to 2.

A recommendation for wheelchair ramps is that the rise-to-run ratio be no greater than 1:12. This ensures that the ramps are nav

Answer:

a. 12 feet b. 12 feet 0.5 inches c. 8.33 %

Step-by-step explanation:

a. How far out horizontally on the ground will it protrude from the building?

Since the rise to run ratio is 1:12 and the building is 12 inches off the ground, let x be the horizontal distance the ramp protrudes.

So, by ratios rise/run = 1/12 = 12/x

1/12 = 12/x

x = 12 × 12

x = 144 inches

Since 12 inches = 1 foot, 144 inches = 144 × 1 inch = 144 × 1 foot/12 inches = 12 feet

b. How long should the ramp be?

The length of the ramp, L is gotten from Pythagoras' theorem since the ramp is a right-angled triangle with sides 12 inches and 144 inches respectively.

So, L = √(12² + 144²)

= √[12² + (12² × 12²)]

= 12√(1 + 144)

= 12√145

= 12 × 12.042

= 144.5 inches

Since 12 inches = 1 foot, 144.5 inches = 144 × 1 inch + 0.5 inches = 144 × 1 foot/12 inches + 0.5 inches = 12 feet 0.5 inches

c. What percent grade is the ramp?

The percentage grade of the ramp = rise/run × 100 %

= 12 inches/144 inches × 100 %

= 1/12 × 100 %

= 0.0833 × 100 %

= 8.33 %

Answer:

$A=189\ mm^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface Areas

Is the sum of all the lateral areas of a given solid. We need to compute the total surface area of the given prism. It has 5 sides, two of them are equal (top and bottom areas) and the rest are rectangles.

Computing the top and bottom areas. They form a right triangle whose legs are 4.5 mm and 6 mm. The area of both triangles is

$\displaystyle A_t=2*\frac{b.h}{2}=b.h=(4.5)(6)=27 mm^2$
