23. The specifications of a ramp for a motorcycle daredevil to complete a jump state that the slope of the ramp must be no steeper than 1.0 and no less than 0.6. If the ramp is 30 feet long and 19 feet tall, does the
ramp's slope meet the specifications?
19 ft
30 ft

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)

move it to the other side

step-by-step explanation:
