Answer:

6.08 or so

Step-by-step explanation:

The height is 1 foot, while the length is 6 feet.

You can use the Pythagorean Theorum to solve this, as you plug in the values.

The theorum states that A squared plus B squared = C squared, where A is  the length, and B is the width. (It doesn't matter if A is the width and B is the length either.)

So if we plug in the values:

1 squared plus 6 squared = C squared.

1 + 36 = 37

Since it is C squared, we can find the square root of 37, which is something like 6.0827625302982196889996842452021.

So usually we round to the hundredths place, so we can use 6.08.

we know that

1 ft--------> is equals to 12 in

the ramp is 12 inches tall----------> 1 ft tall

A ramp measures------------------>  6 ft long

applying the Pythagorean theorem

c²=a²+b²

where

c-----> 6 ft long

a----> horizontal distance

b-----> 1 ft tall

a²=c²-b²------> a²=6²-1²-----> a²=35------> a=√35------> a=5.92 ft

the answer is

5.92 ft

3. What line forms when a plane and a cylinder intersect?
leonid [27]
The answer to this depends on the angle at which they intersect. If it intersects<span> the cylinder perpendicular to the axis then a circle is formed. </span><span>If the plane intersects the cylinder at an angle, it will form an ellipse. This will be true until the plan is parallel with the axis of the cylinder. At that point, the surface will become a rectangle.</span>

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 7x−3y=107x−3y=10?
Verdich [7]
This is the concept of algebra, to get the slope of the line we need to rewrite the equation in slope intercept form y=mx+c, where m=slope, c=y-intercept.
Therefore re-writing our expression in slope-intercept form we get:
7x-3y=10
-3y=-7x+10
y=7/3x-10/3
The slope=7/3
hence we conclude that the slope of the line perpendicular to this is -3/7
