Problema Solution
The approach ramp used by a daredevil motorcyclist for flying over a collection of flaming railroad ties has a rise of 46 feet for every 100 feet in horizontal distance. Find the grade of the ramp. Round to the nearest whole percent
Answer provided by our tutors
Since 46/100 = 0.46 the grade is 46% which means the motorcyclist changes 46 feet in elevation over a 100-foot stretch.
