A tangent section of highway has a -1.0% grade and ends at station 4+75 and elevation 82 ft. It must be connected to another section of highway that has a -1% grade and that begins at station 44+12 and elevation 131.2 ft. The connecting alignment should consist of a sag curve, and be designed for a speed of 50 mi/h. What is the lowest grade possible for the constant-grade section that will complete this alignment?
