We need to find the descent of feet per sec.

To find this, use the same thing as miles per hour

Distance/ time=speed

Red: 20÷8=2.5m/s

Blue:24÷12=2m/s

Therefore the blue one descends the slowest

Find the unit rate of each by dividing distance by time:

20 /8 = 2.5 feet per second

24/12 = 2 feet per second

The blue parachute is falling slower.

PLEASE HELP DUE IN A HOUR I WILL GIVE BRAINLIST
balandron [24]

Answer: here is an example in the screenshot

it is A,B,C, or D

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given perimeter, the area will be maximized when all the sides are the same length, which makes it actually a square. A square is still a rectangle, though! So, if you know the perimeter, divide it by four to determine the length of each side. Then multiply the length times the width to get the area.

BTW U CAN USE A CALCULATOR

Of those 3, 2 of them are yellow.
