The ratio of the height of a skateboard ramp to the length ofthe skateboard ramp is 1 to 6. The height of the ramp is 30 feet.What is the length of the ramp?O 5 ft.O 36 ft.O 90 ftO 180 ft

Respuesta :

If the ratio of the height to the length is 1 to 6, we can write the following equation:

[tex]\frac{height}{length}=\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

The height is equal to 30 ft, so let's solve the equation for the length:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{30}{length}=\frac{1}{6}\\ \\ length=30\cdot6\\ \\ length=180\text{ ft} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The length is equal to 180 ft, therefore the correct option is the fourth one.
