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)

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

<em>V = 16x² </em>

<em>Width = 12in</em>

<em>Height = 12in</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the box is expressed as;

V = Length *Width * height

Given

Length = 16in

Width = x

Height = x

The volume of the box will be expressed as;

V = 16 * x * x

<em>V = 16x² (This gives the required equation)</em>

To get x:

We are given

V = 2304in³

Substitute;

2304 = 16x²

x² = 2304/16

x² = 144

x= √144

x = 12

<em>Hence the width and the height are both 12inches since they are the same.</em>
