Question 106466: HI please help me with this.The answer is stated at the bottom for your convenience.please explain and shoW your work.the question is:
A steel beam goes between the tops of two buildings that are 7 cm apart.One building is 41 m tall.The other one is 52 m tall.what is the slope of the beam?
the answer is 1.6 to the nearest tenth. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A steel beam goes between the tops of two buildings that are 7 m apart.One building is 41 m tall.The other one is 52 m tall.what is the slope of the beam?
the answer is 1.6 to the nearest tenth.
-----------------
Draw the picture:
The vertical difference between the tops of the buildings is (52-41)= 11
The horizontal difference between the buildings is 7
--------------
Slope = (vertical change)/(horizontal change) = 11/7 = 1.5714...
Rounding down you get slope = 1.6
