Explanation:

The variable \(m\) represents the number of minutes Isaac climbs. The calculation \(m = 7\) comes from solving the time needed to reach 70 feet at 10 feet per minute. Thus, \(m = 7\) means the time taken to reach the 70-foot elevation is 7 minutes.

Answer:

It takes Isaac 7 minutes to rock climb up to the goal elevation of 70 feet.
