Question

Consider all ramps for which the ratio of height to length is 3 to 8. Let xbe the unspecified length of a ramp in feet, which can vary, and let

y be the corresponding height of the ramp in feet. Reason about quantities and our definition of multiplication to derive and explain an equation of the form y = c • xfor a suitable constant c (which you should find).
