Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is defined as the rise over the run.  Our rise is the difference between the heights in the beams which is 7 feet (because the shorter beam is 7 feet shorter than the taller beam).  Our run is the distance between the 2 beams which is 40 feet.  Rise over run is also the same thing as the tangent ratio, which is the side opposite over the side adjacent to the angle of inclination.  Therefore,

tan(x) = 7/40 so the slope of the ramp is 7/40

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

I believe the answer is b  

Step-by-step explanation: I think the answer is b because he gets $5 every week and he already has $25 the only thing we dont know is the weeks and you multiply 5 by the weeks so, 5(how much he gets each week) times x (The amount of weeks) plus 25(the amount he already has) equals y(the amount of everything put together)

Given the two points (2,4) and (-3,2), what is the slope of the line that goes through both of these points?
Andreyy89
With the formula: m=(y1-y2)/(x1-x2) you can sub in the values to get the slope (m).

m=(4-2)/(2-(-3))
   = 2/5

Therefore the slope is 2/5.
