Answer:

  10.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent of the angle is the ratio of rise to run.

  tan(angle) = grade

  tan(6°) ≈ 0.105 = 10.5%

The grade will be 10.5% for an angle of elevation of 6°.

The water level in a lake decreased by 2 1/4 inches in march and increased by 1 5/8 inches in april. Determine wether the water
mezya [45]

Change in level is given by :

C = increase in level - decrease in level.

Now,

Decrease in level in March is 2 1/4 = 9/4 inches.

Increase in level in April is 1 5/8 = 13/8 inches.

Putting value of these in above equation, we get :

C = 13/8 - 9/4

C = 13/8 - 18/8

C = -5/8 inches

Therefore, the overall level after April will decrease by 5/8 inches.

Hence, option 4. is correct.
