Answer: 8.3 meters per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A hot air balloon descended 99.6 meters in 12 seconds.

then, the average rate of descent is given by :-

$\text{Average rate of descent}=\dfrac{\text{\text{Distance descended }}}{\text{Time}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Average rate of descent}=\dfrac{99.6}{12}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Average rate of descent}=8.3$

Therefore, the balloon's average rate of descent in meters per second = 8.3 meters per second.

Given:

$\text{ Dimension = 3}\times5$

Sol:

Area of picture is:

$\begin{gathered} =\text{ length}\times\text{ Width} \\ \\ =15 \end{gathered}$

If the cost $10 per square inch then price of 15 square inch is:

$\begin{gathered} =15\times10 \\ \\ =150 \end{gathered}$

If the quadruple of dimension that mean:

$\begin{gathered} \text{ l ength = 4 length} \\ \\ Width\text{ = 4 width} \end{gathered}$

So area is:

$\begin{gathered} A=4\text{ length}\times4\text{ Width} \\ \\ A=4(15) \\ \\ A=60 \end{gathered}$

So price is:

$\begin{gathered} =60\times10 \\ \\ =600 \end{gathered}$
