Which hill described in the table is the steepest? Explain.
(1 point)
Bell Hill; it riges one foot for every 4 feet of horizontal travel
• Dixie Hill; it rises 2 feet for every 1 foot of horizontal travel.
• Liberty Hill; it rises 4 feet for every 3 feet of horizontal travel.
• Liberty Hill; it rises 3/4 foot for every 1 foot horizontal travel

Answer 1

Liberty Hill is the steepest hill described in the table. This can be determined by comparing the ratio of vertical rise to horizontal distance for each hill. Liberty Hill rises 4 feet for every 3 feet of horizontal travel, which is a steeper incline compared to the other hills.
