Question

a party of trekkers left a staging hut, an elevation of 465 ft and arrived at their destination at an elevation of 2347 ft. according to the map, the camps were 3000 ft apart . what was average slope between the two camps

Answer 1

Ok, here we go.
The x-value is given(Great!), so now we need to find y-value for slope

`(2347-465)/(3000)`

`(1882)/(3000)`
The average slope, according to the calculator, is 0.627
