A line has a rise of 6 and a slope of 1/20. What is the run?
30
90
120
What is the answer please help.
Thank you


Sagot :

Rise/Run=(Y-y)/(X-x)

6/Run=1/20=6/120

Say that R=Run

6/R=6/120

720/R=6

6R=720

R=720/6=120

Therefore Run=120.


Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\boxed{\text{Run}=120}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From coordinate geometry we know that, slope is ratio of vertical change rise and the horizontal change run.

Mathematically,

[tex]\text{Slope}=\dfrac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}}[/tex]

Putting the given values,

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{20}=\dfrac{6}{\text{Run}}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \text{Run}=6\times 20[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \text{Run}=120[/tex]
