slope = rise/run, so
(-70)/(80), or -7/8
A slope that descends 15 feet per 24 feet has a slope of 5/8.
5/20 = 0.25
For every 3 feet of horizontal run, there is a vertical change of 1 foot of assent or desent. i.e.: if the bank is falling away from the top of the slope towards the toe of the slope ata rate of 1 foot drop for every 3 feet horizontal, or away from the top, the ratio of desent is 3:1 (3 feet out for every 1 foot down).
The slope would be: -15/24 It's negative because it's descending instead of ascending.
slope = change in y / change in x = 6/30 = 1/5 It can also be expressed as 1 in 5 or 20 %

1 in 8 ramp means: for every 8 units horizontal, there will be a rise of 1 unit. Example: 8 feet of horizontal distance will slope upwards to a finish height of 1 foot. or 1 meter of horizontal distance will slope upwards to a finish height of 125 mm. In both examples height/horizontal length = 1/8 or 125/1000 = 1 in 8.
Slope is rise/run, or vertical height/horizontal distance. If a hill rises 100 feet high over a horizonatl distance of 1000 feet, it has a slope of 100/1000 = 0.10. Thais one -tenth slope, or one-tenth gradient, which is a 10% grade.
The slope of a baseball pitching mound to home plate typically has a rise of 1 foot for every 12 feet of horizontal distance, resulting in a 1:12 slope. The pitcher's mound is 10 inches high at its peak, which is located 60 feet 6 inches from home plate. This slope ensures that pitchers can achieve an effective delivery while maintaining player safety.
For proper fall. Pipe should slope 1" for every 8'.
1. Determine the height difference (a) between the start and end of the slope by subtracting the starting height from the final height (if it is a downhill slope the difference will be a negative number) 2. Determine the horizontal distance (b) between the starting point and the final point. If you only know the actual linear distance (c) along the slope, you can figure the horizontal distance using the Pythagorean Theorem: a2+b2=c2. For example, if the linear distance (c) along the slope from start to finish is 1000 feet, and the height difference (a) is 75 feet, then using the theorem you would have 752+b2=10002or 5625+b2=1000000. Your horizontal distance (b) would therefore be b2=994375 or b=997.2 feet 3. Divide the height difference (a) by the horizontal distance (b) and multiply by 100. This gives you the grade of the slope in percent. In the example it would be 75 ÷ 997.2 × 100 = 7.5% grade
The pitch would be 3.74 4.5 x 12 = 54" rise 54 / 14.42 = 3.74
