The entrance to an accessibility ramp is at ground level The first section of the ramp covers a horizontal distance of 18 feet and rises to a
landing 1.5 feet above the ground
The second section of the ramp begins at the landing, it rises at a slope of t; and
covers another 9 feet of horizontal distance to reach the door

Answer the questions to compare the sections of the ramp
1. What is the slope of the ramp from the ground to the landing? Write your answer
as a fraction with a whole number numerator and denominator
Write your answer in the space below.

1)"rise over run" = 1.5/18 = 3/36 = 1/12 for the 1st section to the landing

2)slope is the change in height, the vertical change, divided by the change in horizontal distance

3)2nd section has slope 1/18 and covers 9 feet. That means it rises 1/2 foot

4)slope = 1/18 = (1/2)/9  

5)the door is 2 feet higher than the ground level,  1.5 + .5 = 2 feet change vertically

the total estimated nappy use.=10,500,000

step-by-step explanation:

given that on an average the average baby uses 3528 napkins.

in a particular year 2014, the number of births were 299697 in new south wales.

rounding off the number of births to the nearest hundred thousand we have

no of birtsh = 300000

also rounding off the average usage to nearst thousand we get

average use of a baby = 3500

hence total number of nappy estimated to be used = 3500x300000

= 10,500,000

answer is 10,500,000 nappies
