Question

A set of stais is being built for the front of a middle school. The ration of rise to run is 3 to 5. How is the coefiiciant related to the steepness of a set of stairs with this ratio?​

Answer 1

Answer:

the coefficient related to the steepness of a set  of stairs is proportional to the ratio $\frac{3}{5} = 0.6$. Therefore co-efficient  = 0.6k  where k is a constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) the coefficient related to the steepness of a set  of stairs is proportional to the ratio $\frac{3}{5} = 0.6$
