Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
24 + 40 = 8*(3 + 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The factors of:
24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 14
40: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40
the prime factors:
24: 2 * 2 * 2 * 3
40: 2 * 2 * 2 * 5
The most shared factors are (2*2*2=8)
Factoring out 8 we have:
24 + 40 = 8*(3 + 5)
Let
x-------> the time
y-------> the altitude of a helicopter
Step 1
<u>Find the slope of the line</u>
we know that
the slope m of the line between two points is equal to

we have

substitute in the formula



therefore
<u>the answer is the option </u>
The slope is
. This means that the helicopter descends
ft each minute.
I believe it’s
A 130
The other choices don’t make sense
