First walk=descend of 1024 feet in 17 minutes
second walk=descend of 500 feet in 7 minutes

so in total she descended 1024+500=1524 feet in 7+17=24 minutes
as an average rate this equals 1524/24=63.5 feet/minute descended
or an average rate of -63.5 feet/minute in altitude (note the minus)

Answer:

The percentage by which the booster club fell short is 33% as shown on the chart

Step-by-step explanation:

To represent the given data pictorially, a pie chart is suitable

The circumference of the pie chart will represent the amount to be raised by the booster club and a sector of the circle which is two-thirds of the circumference represents the amount raised

Given that the amount raised = 2/3×Goal = $15,000, we have;

We represent the amount raised as a sector of the circle as follows;

Sector angle = 2/3×360° = 240°

Total sector of goal amount = Entire circle = 360°

Amount club fell short = 360° - 240° = 120°

The goal amount = 3/2 × $15,000

Percentage by which the club fell short = 120/360×100 = 1/3×100 = 33.33%
