By law, the maximum slope of a wheelchair ramp is 1/12.

-----a. a ramp is designed that is 4 feet high and has a horizontal length of 50 feet. Does this ramp meet the law? Explain.

----b. What could be adjusted on an unacceptable ramp so that it meets the law?

Sagot :

Yes, it meets the requirements. 1/12 simplifies to 0.0833 and 4/50 simplifies to .08. .

Answer:

Part One: No it doesn't. Part Two: You could lower the height of the ramp.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so 4/50 can be simplified to 2/25. 2/25 is greater than 1/12 so no it doesnt meet the law. Part Two asks what could you adjust to meet the law. A simple answer would be You could lower the height of the ramp and this would help how steep it is. Your welcome:)
