The ramp from a dock to a boat rises 4 feet for every 14 feet of run. what is the slope of the ramp?

The slope of the ramp is:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is a measure of how much the independent variable grows y when x increases one unit.

In this case we know that when the run increases by 14 feet then the ramp rises 4 feet.

So

x increases 14 feet

and it increases 4 feet

The slope is

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.

answer: -1
