Using either a stairway or a handicap access ramp , model a linear function and determine if the stairs/ramp are “up to code” based on International Building Codes (stairs) or ADA ramp requirements.
Option 1—Stairs
Measure the rise and run of several steps and calculate the equation of the line of the stairs.
Option 2—Ramp
Choose one from each set and post the values to the forum. You must choose a pair of values not already selected by a classmate.
Height list: 24.5, 25, 25.5, 26, 26.5, 27, 27.5, 28, 28.5, 29, 29.5
Slope ratio: 1:12, 1:12.5, 1:13, 1:13.5, 1:14, 1:14.5, 1:15
