I need help with diagrams 5 and 6, as well as the following question, as the homeschooling course's intructional video does not explain what to do when you have a whole number as a slope instead of a fraction.
The slope of a street is 0.54. If it covers 28 metres of horizontal distance, what is the rise of the street?
I would really appreciate assistance. Thank you. 
Note: If the picture does not show up, I could email it to you.

This means that for every 1 m change in horizontal distance, the street rises .54m
[Note that when the slope is just given as a single number, we can put that number over 1.....so here.... 0.54 = 0.54 / 1 .....and that's the slope ]
So........28(.54) = 15.12 m is the rise
