HELP ME ASAP BRAINLIEST PLEASE AND EXPLAIN PLEASE
The point labeled W and Y on the topographic map below show the campsites of two families. Each family hiked to the elevation on the map marked X. The arrows show the paths taken by both families.

What was the change in elevation, to the nearest ten meters, for the family that took the steepest path to Point X?

Be sure to show your work and explain how you got your answer.

Respuesta :

Family Y took the steepest path. The change in elevation was 120m. I know this because family Y started at 480m in elevation and ended at 600m, so the difference is 120. Family X started at 560m in elevation so their change in elevation is only 40m.

Answer:

the answer is 120

Explanation:

this is because they are only asking for the family’s elevation that took the steep path. point x is 600 and y(where the steepest family is) is 480. the difference is 120 therefore making it the answer. i can see why some would say 40 but I talked to my teacher and she told me that 120 was the correct answer as I suspected.
