### Problem 23.10

A sewer pipe must be laid starting from an invert elevation of 784.58 ft at station 9 + 25 to an ending invert elevation of 782.48 ft at station 12 + 75. Determine the uniform grade needed, and calculate invert elevations at each 50-ft station.

**Explanation**

1. **Starting Point**: Invert elevation is 784.58 ft at station 9 + 25.
2. **Ending Point**: Invert elevation is 782.48 ft at station 12 + 75.
3. **Task**: 
   - Determine the uniform grade required.
   - Calculate invert elevations at every 50-ft station.

**Instructions**

- **Uniform Grade Calculation**:
  - Find the difference in station numbers and the total distance.
  - Use the change in elevation and distance to calculate the slope.

- **Invert Elevations**:
  - Using the calculated uniform grade, determine elevations at each 50-ft increment between the starting and ending stations.
