Question

How many inches does the ramp rise for each inch of length? Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is B)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we look at what we know. There are two points on the graph that we know, (0, 0) and (15, 5). This can give us the slope of the line.

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 | Plug in our coordinates

5 - 0 / 15 - 0 | 5 / 15 | 1/3. Our slope is 1/3. This means that for each inch of length, the ramp rises .33 inches.
