A simple machine. You know, inclined plane, lever, pulley, screw, wheel, or a wedge.
The values of work found for different lengths of inclined plane depend on the mass of the object being moved and the angle of the incline. Generally, as the length of the inclined plane increases, the amount of work required to move the object decreases. This is because a longer incline allows for a smaller vertical distance over which the gravitational force acts, reducing the amount of work needed. However, the angle of the incline also plays a role, as a steeper incline requires more work to move the object regardless of its length.
An inclined plane is a surface that is not horizontal (level), with one end higher than the other. Pushing a broken down car is much easier and takes less effort downhill, than to push the same car uphill.
No, work is related to energy, not to force.
by increasing effort distance hence reducing the effort needed to work
When a person is using an inclined plane it decreases the amount of force needed to move the object.
As an inclined plane gets shorter, the angle gets steeper and the effort becomes greater.

Reduce the friction

It requires less force to move an object up an inclined plane if the slope is less steep.

the less steep it is the less force you will need
The two amounts are the same but have the opposite sign (positive vs negative).
a lot
By reducing friction [rolling instead of dragging across a surface]By decreasing the amount of force needed to perform an action (at the cost of reducing the amount of action) [levers, inclined plane]
The main function of an inclined plane is to decrease the work needed to push an object at an angle uphill.
