Using either a stairway or a handicap access ramp (specific data values given), model a linear function and determine if the stairs/ramp are "up to code" based on International Building Codes (stairs) or ADA ramp requirements.[MO 4.3, MO 4.4, MO 4.6]

Option 1Stairs

Measure the rise and run of several steps and calculate the equation of the line of the stairs.

Option 2Ramp

Choose one from each set.

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
