Given rise/run = 4/3, it means ________.
Choose the correct answer below.
A.
The line will go down 4 units and then run 3 units right.
B.
The line will go up 3 units and then run 4 units to the right.
C.
The line will go up 4 units and then run 3 units to the right.
D.
The line will go up 4 units and then run 3 units to the left.
B.
The line will go up 3 units and then run 4 units to the right.
you sure?
Apologies for the mistake. The correct answer is:
C. The line will go up 4 units and then run 3 units to the right.
To determine the correct answer, we need to understand what "rise" and "run" mean in the context of the question.
In mathematics, when we talk about the slope of a line, we use the terms "rise" and "run" to describe the vertical change and horizontal change between two points on the line, respectively.
In this case, the given rise/run ratio is 4/3. This means that for every 4 units of vertical change (rise), there is a corresponding 3 units of horizontal change (run) in the positive direction.
Now let's examine the answer options:
A. The line will go down 4 units and then run 3 units right.
B. The line will go up 3 units and then run 4 units to the right.
C. The line will go up 4 units and then run 3 units to the right.
D. The line will go up 4 units and then run 3 units to the left.
Since the ratio is given as 4/3, the correct answer must have a positive rise of 4 and a positive run of 3. Option C, "The line will go up 4 units and then run 3 units to the right," matches these conditions.
Therefore, the correct answer is C.
