Al oeste de Albuquerque, Nuevo México, la carretera 40 con rumbo al este es recta y tiene una fuerte pendiente hacia la ciudad.

La carretera tiene una rasante del 6%, lo cual quiere decir que su pendiente es -100 Al manejar por esta carretera usted puede ver por los señalamientos que ha bajado 1000 pies. ¿Cuál es el cambio en la distancia horizontal?

Usando el concepto de pendiente, se encuentra que el cambio en la distancia horizontal es de 10 pies.

La pendiente de una reta es la <u>razón entre el cambio vertical y el cambio horizontal,</u> o sea, cual el cambio vertical cuando el cambio horizontal es de 1.

En este problema, hay que:

  • La pendiente es -100, o sea, cuando hay un desplazamiento de un pie por adelante, hay una queda de 100 pies.
  • Bajado 1000 pies, entonces, aplicando la proporción:

1 pie H -> -100 pies V

x pie H -> -1000 pies V

Aplicando la multiplicación cruzada:

-100x = -1000

100x = 1000

x = \frac{1000}{100}

x = 10

El cambio en la distancia horizontal es de 10 pies.
