Documenting Fiber-Optic Layout with the Point-and-Slope Method
As a field technician at NetLink Solutions, you are responsible for documenting cable paths on a digital map grid. You need to map a new fiber-optic cable line that passes through a main distribution hub located at the coordinates with a constant slope of .
To comply with municipal infrastructure filing requirements, write a short report detailing the point-and-slope procedure you must follow to graph this line. In your response, clearly specify:
- The initial point to be plotted and its coordinates on the grid.
- The values of the 'rise' and 'run' derived from the given slope.
- The step-by-step vertical and horizontal counts starting from the initial point, and the resulting coordinates of the second plotted point.
- How the line representing the cable path is completed on the grid map.
