- Railroad Grade A train travels 3.5 kilometers on a straight track with a grade of 1.2 (see figure). What is the vertical rise of the train in that distance?arrow_forwardCONCEPTS The distance between the points (a,b) and (c,d) is ____________. So the distance between (1,2) and (7,10) is _________.arrow_forwardA Ramp A ramp runs from the ground level to a building entrance that is 3 feet high and 12 feet from the base of the ramp. If we think of the base of the ramp as the origin and the building is located on the positive horizontal axis as shown in Figure 3.26), find the slope of the line representing the ramp.arrow_forward
- A Ramp into a Van Suppose a ramp is used to move a heavy object into a van. Suppose also that the van door is 18 inches off the ground. a. If the bottom of the ramp rests on the ground 4 feet from the van, what is the slope of the ramp? b. If the ramp cannot have a slope of more than 1.2 inches per foot, how far from the van should the ramp rest?arrow_forwardDrainage Pipe Slope Suppose a drainage pipe slopes downward 6 inches for each 8-foot horizontal stretch. What is the slope of the pipe?arrow_forwardSlope from Two Points Take west to be the positive direction. The height of a sloped roof above the place where you stand is 12 feet see Figure 3.28). If you move 3 feet west, the height is 10 feet. What is the slope?arrow_forward
