Answer:
1. Draw out a diagram as a triangle with one side as the 5' rise, the other side as the horizontal run, and the hypotenuse as the ramp.
2. Put the 5 ° in as the angle between the run and the ramp.
3. Let the run = x. Using trigonometry (needed!) the tangent angle (tan) of 5° = opposite/adjacent = 5/x.
4. So x = 5/tan(5°). you will need a scientific calculator to solve.
I think it would be 8
Step-by-step explanation:
I can try, but need to see the problem first.
y = -1
(y+1)/(x-8) = (-1+1)/(-2-8)
(y+1)/(x-8) = 0
y+1 =0
y= -1
