This answer is perpendicular because of the points
You know where the glacier is now, and how far it moves in
one year. The question is asking how close to the sea it will be
after many years.
Step-1 ... you have to find out how many years
Step-2 ... you have to figure out how far it moves in that many years
Step-3 ... you have to figure out where it is after it moves that far
The first time I worked this problem, I left out the most important
step ... READ the problem carefully and make SURE you know
the real question. The first time I worked the problem, I thought
I was done after Step-2.
============================
Step-1: How many years is it from 2010 to 2030 ?
(2030 - 2010) = 20 years .
Step-2: How far will the glacier move in 20 years ?
It moves 0.004 mile in 1 year.
In 20 years, it moves 0.004 mile 20 times
0.004 x 20 = 0.08 mile
Step-3: How far will it be from the sea after all those years ?
In 2010, when we started watching it, it was 6.9 miles
from the sea.
The glacier moves toward the sea.
In 20 years, it will be 0.08 mile closer to the sea.
How close will it be ?
6.9 miles - 0.08 mile = 6.82 miles (if it doesn't melt)
Let's call our number <em>x</em>.
So we can setup the equation x² = 100.
To solve this equation, we square root both sides.
So we have x = ±10.
Always use plus or minus when square rooting both sides
of an equation so our answer is not only 10, it's also -10.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: The answer is 400 blue marbles.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that there are 560 marbles in a bag, out of which 65% are red and rest are blue.
So, number of red marbles is
and number of blue marbles is
Now, if 28 red marbles are replaced by blue marbles, the the new number of red and blue marbles will be
Now, to get 65% of the marbles blue, we need to add some more blue marbles to the bag. Let 'x' number of blue marbles are added to the bag, then
Thus, 400 blue marbles need to be added to the bag.
