Answer:

X is located at 640ft in elevation.

The western side is steeper because the lines are closer together than the other sides of the hill.

Explanation:

Each contour line represents a 20ft increase in elevation. You can see the 600ft line labeled on the map, so the next one in is 620, and the one labeled "X" is 640.

Contour lines that are farther apart indicate a more gentle slope that is increasing its height over a longer distance. Just like a graph in math class, slope is "rise over run," so a flatter slope tells us that the height is increasing slowly. Close contour lines show us that the height is going up very quickly.

How do the earths physical features affect people activities
Rzqust [24]
I think it's recreational activities, method of transportation, and choice of occupation. So all of the above. Why? So lets start with recreational activities. Earth's physical form depends of if people want to go fishing, hiking, hiking, etc. Method of transportation. We need to have smooth ground to bike or drive on. A highway isn't going to be in the middle of the mountain. We need to have a good solid surface. Choice of occupation. Earth has a physical feature of like I said, mountains, plains, oceans, etc. We want to live in a place that has good resources, and good weather. All of these things depend on physical features of Earth.
