Can someone give me two equations an tell me which of the two would be steeper ?

Well when you look at equations, they are all built from y=mx+b. Y and x are a point on that line, m is your slope, and b is the y intercept. So when you look at two equations, take the absolute value of m to find which is steeper. Take these two examples.
y=3x+4
y=-7x+4
Take the absolute value of 3 and -7
|3|=3
|-7|=7
7 is the larger number so y=-7x+4 has a steeper slope.

If a hiker starts at sea level and increases her elevation at a rate of 1 foot per minute what will her elevation be in 20 minut

sattari [20]

Answer:

20 feet above sea level.

Explanation:

This can be solved by looking at the Rate of Change. It is given that for ONE minute that passes by, her elevation increases by ONE foot.

With this rate, after 20 minutes, the elevation can be shown as:

20 min × 1 foot= 20 feet.

Three of exterior angle of n-sided polygon are 50° each two of it's interior angle are 127° and 135° and the remaining interior

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The value of n is 21.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that three of the exterior angle of the n-sided polygon are 50° each two of its interior angle are 127° and 135° and the remaining interior angle are 173 each.

As we know that the sum of all exterior angles of the polygon is 360°. Also, the number of remaining interior angles will be (n - 5).

And, the exterior angle = 180° - the interior angle.

So, according to the question;

$(3 \times 50) + (180-127) + (180 - 135) + (n - 5)\times (180-173) =360$
