***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!!

Anthony has 400 marbles. He sells 1/4 of the marbles to Jayveon, he gives 10% to Abdul and donates 10 marbles to his little brot
Georgia [21]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of marbles = 400

Anthony sells 1/4 of the marbles to Jayveon. This will be:

= 1/4 × 400

= 100 marbles

Anthony gives 10% to Abdul. Abdul will have:

= 10% × 400

= 0.1 × 400

= 40 marbles

He gave 10 marbles to his little brother.

The number of marbles that Anthony has left will be:

= 400 - (100 + 40 + 10)

= 400 - 150

= 250 marbles

What is the first step in solving 2x=y X+y=30
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer: x = 10 y=20

Step-by-step explanation:

You can answer this question by plugging in each equation:

2x=y, x+y=30. Let us plug y as 2x in the second equation x+y=30

x+2x= 30

3x= 30

x=10

After we found x we can then find y by plugging the 10 for x.

2(10) = y

y =20

or you could plug in the other equation

10+y=30

subtract 10 from 30 and we get 20

to double check we can plug in both numbers

2(10) = 20 which is correct

and 10 + 20 = 30 which is correct

-2x^2+4x-1 from 6x^2+3x-9
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

8{x}^{2}  - x   - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to subtract

- 2 {x}^{2}  + 4x - 1

from

6 {x}^{2}  + 3x - 9

We set up the subtracttion problem to get:

6 {x}^{2}  + 3x - 9 - ( - 2 {x}^{2}  + 4x - 1)

We expand the parenthesis to get:

6 {x}^{2}  + 3x - 9  + 2 {x}^{2}   - 4x  + 1

Group similar terms:

6 {x}^{2}   + 2 {x}^{2} + 3x- 4x  + 1 - 9

We simplify to get:

8{x}^{2}  - x   - 8
