A walkway rises 3.5 ft for every 5 ft on the horizontal. Find its slope (or grade).

The slope, or grade is. 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we take the change in y over the change in x. It is also the change in the vertical over the change in the horizontal

3.5 ft / 5 ft

.7

The slope, or grade is. 7

Answer: 0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

A formula we can use for slope is rise/run

In this case it would be 3.5/5

3.5/5=0.7

The slop is 0.7
