0.40= ______
130
the slope of a street is 0.40 how many feet vertically does it rise over a horizontal diastance of 130 feet
I don't know how to work this problem
School Subject means exactly that!!
i need to find the rise the run is 130 and the slope is 0.40
yes,
height/130 = .4
height = .4(130) = 52
It rises 52 ft.
THANKS!!
To find the vertical rise over a horizontal distance on a slope, you can use the formula:
Vertical Rise = Slope × Horizontal Distance
In this case, the slope is given as 0.40 and the horizontal distance is 130 feet. Plugging in these values into the formula, we can calculate the vertical rise:
Vertical Rise = 0.40 × 130
To find the solution, multiply 0.40 by 130:
Vertical Rise = 52 feet
Therefore, the street rises 52 feet vertically over a horizontal distance of 130 feet.
