***NOTE*** we are going to use the rise over run formula to solve this problem
Joe climbed a mountain with a rise of 1, 200 feet and a run of 1, 500 feet.
So, the slope would be:
1, 200 over 1, 500
which can be simplified...
1,200/1,500 = 12/15 = 4/5
When we solve for slope for Bob, we do the same thing.
He climbed a mountain with a rise 900 feet and a run of 1, 000 feet.
So, it would look like this after we simplify it...
900/1,000 = 9/10
Finally, since Bob's mountain has the largest slope (or fraction), that means that he climbed the steepest mountain.
I hope this helps! :) Let me know if you need help with anything else! I'd be happy to help you!!
Answer:
Explanation:
You draw a vertical line going upward from<em> x = -1</em>, stop where your vertical line intercetpts the <em>function</em> (the red line); then draw a horizontal line unitl you reach the y-axis; finally, you can read the y-value on the y-axis. That is the value of the function.
It is pretty close to the midpoint between y = 1 and y = 2, thus a good estimate would be y = 1.5.
Answer:
Y= 3X-9
Step-by-step explanation:
20/q = 7/9
20×9 = 7q
7q = 180
q = 180/7
Given :
Abraham has visited 10 countries already. He has a goal of visiting at least 50 countries.
He plans to achieve this goal by visiting 5 new countries per year (y) for the next several years.
To Find :
Which inequality and solution shows the amount of years that it will take for Abraham to meet his goal.
Solution :
Let, after x years Abraham visited y countries.
It is mathematically given as :
Now, it is given that his goal is minimum of 50 countries.
So,
Therefore, minimum years required to meet his goals are 8.
Hence, this is the required solution.
