At the curb a ramp is 11 inches off the ground. the other end of the ram rests on the street 55 inches from the curb write a linear equation in slope intercept form that relates the height y of the ramp to he distance x from the curb

The linear equation in slope intercept form that relates the height y of the ramp to he distance x from the curb is:

If we model this equation on a coordinate plane we see that the ramp passes through the point (0,11) and (55,0)

where the horizontal axis i.e. the x-axis represent the distance of the ramp from the curb and the vertical axis represent the  height y of the ramp.

We know that the ramp satisfies a linear relationship.

Hence, the slope is constant between two points.

i.e. the slope of a line passing through (a,b) and (c,d) is calculated by:

Also, the slope intercept of a line is given by:

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

From the given problem we have slope as:

Also, y-intercept is: b=11

( Since the y-intercept is the value where x=0 )

          The equation  is given as:

1 and 2

step-by-step explanation:

a. turk and mcalister

b. howard, mission, and market

c. yes. since streets end some do not cross yet are not parallel to others. example: mcalister and 5th

step-by-step explanation:

parallel lines are lines which do not intersect ever and look a lot like railroad tracks. turk, mcalister and golden gate are examples of these.

intersect are streets which cross each other and a car on one can reach the other. howard, mission, and market intersect with 6th.

skew lines are lines which neither intersect nor are parallel. these lines exist here because some streets end and never intersect another like mcalister and 5th.
