Question

Would an experience downhill skier want the slope of the hill to be 1/10 or 9/10?  Why?

​

Answer 1

9/10

Explanation:

step 1

Compare the slopes

`1/10=0.10`

`9/10=0.9`

`0.9 > 0.10`

therefore

An experienced skier would like the 9/10 hill slope because it is steeper, while the 1/10 is a softer slope.
