Answered

A local road rises 33 feet for every 423 feet of pavement. What’s the slope of the road?

Answer :

Answer:

Slope = 0.078

Explanations:

The road rises 33 feet for every 423 feet of pavement.

This can be interpreted as:

Rise = 33 feet

Run = 423 feet (Because the pavement runs horizontally)

Slope = Rise / Run

Slope = 33 / 423

Slope = 0.078
