Question

A wheelchair ramp requires a minimum 1:12 ratio of height to length, meaning a ramp with a height of 2.2 feet requires a length of 26.4 feet. Use a proportion to describe the relationship between the required height-to-length ratio and the ramp’s height-to-length ratio. Write the proportion in fraction form without reducing it to the lowest terms. (1 point)

Answer 1

wrong

Answer 2

Let x represent the required height-to-length ratio and y represent the ramp's height-to-length ratio.

The proportion can be written as:

x/y = 1/12

Answer 3

Apologies for the mistake.

Let x represent the required height-to-length ratio and y represent the ramp's height-to-length ratio.

The proportion can be written as:

y/x = 2.2/26.4
