29 minutes-  at a rate of 1,000 feet a minute, it would take 32 minutes to reach sea level (32,000/1000=32)but if you subtract 3000 from 32000 to remain 3000 feet above sea level, you have 29000 feet to descend which will take 29 minutes

Let

x-------> the time in minutes

y-------> the height of the airplane above sea level in feet

we know that

y=32,000-1,000x -------> equation 1

In this problem

For y=3,000\ ft

<u>Find the value of x </u>

Substitute the value of y in the equation 1 and solve for x

3,000=32,000-1,000x

1,000x=32,000-3,000

1,000x=29,000

x=29,000/1,000

x=29\ minutes

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

29\ minutes

Hey can you please help me posted picture of question:)
Sphinxa [80]
The given trinomial can be factored using the factorization method.

x² + 15x + 56
= x² +8x +7x + 56
= x(x+8) + 7(x+8)
= (x+8)(x+7)

Thus, (x+8)(x+7) is the factored form of the polynomial.

So the correct answer is option B
