Answer 1

Answer:B

Explanation: HI my name IS TAylor Daniel ANd the answers is B

Answer 2

I would say B(make the ramp longer). That way they will have to exert less force in order for it to the desired height. If you think about it, it is harder to go up a really steep hill vs. a hill with a gradual incline, because you have to exert less force at any one given time.
