What is the slope (grade) of a road that rises 6 feet for every horizontal change of 100 feet ?

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope refers to the inclination of the road.

To find the slope, we just have to divide the vertical distance by the horizontal distance, as follows

Therefore, the slope of the road is , which means for every vertical displacement of 3 feet, the horizontal displacement is 50 feet.

1/5^2 = 7.56/45

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.
