Answer:

0.00893 feet elevation per 1 foot distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hill reaches an elevation of 250 ft (above sea level) over the course of 28,000 feet.  The average rate of change would be (250 ft)/(28,000 ft), or 0.00893 feet elevation/1 foot distance.

((0.00893 (feet up/foot distance))*(28,000 feet distance) = 250 feet  up (elevation).
