2 less than (3 times a number) is the same as (the number plus 10)
2 less than (3*x) = (x + 10)
3x - 2 = x + 10
From here, you solve! :)

3x - 2 - x = x + 10 - x
2x - 2 = 10
2x - 2 + 2 = 10 + 2
2x = 12
2x / 2 = 12 / 2
x = 6

Hope this helps! :)

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
patriot [66]

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 %
