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)
The postulate of the corresponding angles establishes that when a transversal line cuts two parallel lines, the corresponding angles are congruent. These angles are on the same side of the parallel lines and on the same side of the transversal line.
Then, if we based on this definition and analize the figure attached, we can notice that the angles ∠1 and ∠3 are corresponding angles, so they are congruent. In this case the angle ∠1 is internal and the angle ∠3 is external.
The answer is: ∠1 and ∠3 are congruent (See the image attached).
Answer:
Alan buys 12.05 ounces of sour patch kids candy in all.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Alan buys 5.3 ounces of sour patch kids candy. After sharing with his friends he returns to buy an additional 6.75 ounces.
And we have to find the total ounces he buys in all.
As we know that for finding the total quantity or amount, we will use addition for calculating it.
Firstly, Alan buys = 5.3 ounces of sour patch kids candy
Additional ounces of sour patch kids candy Alan buys = 6.75
So, the total ounces of sour patch kids candy he buys in all = 5.3 + 6.75
= 12.05 ounces
Hence, he buys 12.05 ounces in all.

First, let's expand the right side. Now our equation is

Now, we gather all the terms with x in it on the left side, and the numbers without x on the right. We get:

And then we can make this

We divide both sides by 12 to get x on its own, so x = 13/12 or 1.08
