Answer:

9000 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A airplane is ascending at a constant rate of 15 feet per second,

What we need to know: The change in altitude during 10 minutes of flight,

60 seconds = 1 minute

60 × 10

= 600 seconds

600 × 15

= 9000 ft

Therefore there was a 9000 ft change in altitude during the 10 minutes of the flight.

What is 8.25 as a fraction in simplest form?

vekshin1

8 is a whole number, so this will be the whole number part of our mixed number.

0.25 is a decimal, where 25 is in the HUNDREDths place, so we write 25 as a fraction over 100.

$\sf\dfrac{25}{100}$

Simplify by dividing 25 to the numerator and denominator.

$\sf25\div25=1$
$\sf100\div25=4$

So our fraction is $\sf8\dfrac{1}{4}$

0.55 is a decimal, where 55 is in the HUNDREDths place, so we write 55 as a fraction over 100.

$\sf\dfrac{55}{100}$

Simplify by dividing 5 to the numerator and denominator.

$\sf55\div5=11$
$\sf100\div5=20$

So our fraction is $\sf\dfrac{11}{20}$

$\sf\dfrac{5}{8}$

To convert this to a decimal, just divide 5 / 8

$\sf5\div8=0.625$

Aaron is 15 centimeters taller than Peter, and five times Aaron's height exceeds two times Peter's height by 525 centimeters. Th

Tatiana [17]

The system of linear equations that relates x and y:
x= 15 + y
5 x = 2 y+ 525
We will solve this system using substitution method:
5(15 + y)=2 y + 525
75 + 5 y = 2 y + 525
5 y - 2 y = 525 - 75
3 y = 450, y = 450 : 3 y = 150
x = 15 + y x = 15 + 150 x = 165
Answer: Aaron´s height is 165 cm and Peter´s height is 150 cm.
