What is the slope of a ski run that rises 3 feet for every horizontal change of 2 feet?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know the slope ratio?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Slope is \[rise/run\] or \[y/x\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh

So the ski run rises up vertically 3 feet every time we move 2 feet horizontally to the right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So all we have to do is write the change as \[y/x\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okie ty
