This math topic focuses on calculating the horizontal distance or 'run' of a line, based on given slopes and rises, specifically using decimals. Each problem provides the slope as a ratio of rise to run, and requires determining the horizontal change. This set of problems helps in understanding the concept of slope in the context of a line on a coordinate plane, reinforcing the connection between graphical representation and algebraic calculation of linear equations.
