You can put this solution on YOUR website! In the following examples, calculate the gradient of the road using the rise/run formula.
(a)A person travels 10km along a road of incline 1km....1/10
----------------------------
(b)A person travels 5km along a road of incline 2km....2/5
----------------------------
(c)A road sign describes a hill on a road as 1 in 9....1/9
----------------------------
(d)A road sign describes a steep hill on a road as 3 in 4....3/4
----------------------------
(e)A man walks along a road for 4km with a slight incline of 1km....1/4
