Question

a. Which is a steeper slope?
b. Name the simple machine being used to shift the cars into the truck.
c. On which slope do you think less effort is required to shift the car? Why?​

Answer 1

The steepness, incline, or grade of a line is measured by the absolute value of the slope. A slope with a greater absolute value indicates a steeper line. The direction of a line is either increasing, decreasing, horizontal or vertical. ... If a line is vertical the slope is undefined (see below).

Answer 2

Explanation:

a. The steepness, incline, or grade of a line is measured by the absolute value of the slope. A slope with a greater absolute value indicates a steeper line. The direction of a line is either increasing, decreasing, horizontal or vertical. ... If a line is vertical the slope is undefined (see below).

b. pulley

c. Inclined planes make it easier to move objects to a higher elevation. The sloping surface of the inclined plane supports part of the weight of the object as it moves up the slope. As a result, it takes less force to move the object uphill.
