Answer:

They have the same slope

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Coaster 1:

Drops = 140ft

Run = 40ft

Coaster 2:

Drops = 105ft

Run = 30ft

First, we calculate the slope (m) of both coasters

m = \frac{Rise}{Run}

m = \frac{Drops}{Run}

For coaster 1:

m = \frac{140ft}{40ft}

m = \frac{140}{40}

m = 3.5

For coaster 1:

m = \frac{105ft}{30ft}

m = \frac{105}{30}

m = 3.5

<em></em>m = m=>3.5 = 3.5<em></em>

<em>By comparison, they have the same slope</em>
