Defining Slope Components for a Walkway Grade
A site planning assistant is using a geoboard to model the grade of a new walkway that has a slope of 3/4. Based on the standard geoboard method for representing slope, state the exact number of units that must be counted for the 'rise' and the exact number of units that must be counted for the 'run' to correctly model this grade.
