Bot GPT 3.5 Rise over run, also known as slope, is a measurement used in math and physics to describe the steepness of a line or a hill. It is calculated by dividing the change in vertical height (rise) by the corresponding change in horizontal distance (run). The formula for calculating rise over run is:
\( \text{Slope} = \frac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}} \)
For example, if a hill rises 50 feet over a horizontal distance of 100 feet, the rise over run would be:
\( \frac{50}{100} = 0.5 \)
This means that the slope of the hill is 0.5, or a rise of 0.5 units for every 1 unit of horizontal distance.
