Plane A is descending toward the local airport, and plane B is ascending from the same airport. Plane A is descending at a rate

of 2,500 feet per minute. Plane B is ascending at a rate of 4,000 feet per minute. If plane A is currently at an altitude of 14,000 feet and plane B is at an altitude of 1,000 feet, how long will it take them to be at the same altitude? The equation representing plane A’s descent is y = -2,500x + 14,000. The equation representing plane B’s ascent is y = 4,000x + 1,000. In both equations, y represents altitude and x represents time in minutes.

Answer: 2 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Plane A's descent :

y = -2,500x + 14,000

Plane B's Ascent :

y = 4,000x + 1,000

where y = altitude x = minute

Time to be at the same altitude :

Being at the same altitude means ;

Plane A's descent = Plane B's Ascent

-2,500x + 14,000 = 4,000x + 1,000

-2500x - 4000x = 1000 - 14000

-6500x = - 13000

x = 13000 / 6500

x = 2

x = 2minutes.

Gabriel is performing an experiment in which he is measuring the energy and work being done by a ball rolling down a hill. Descr
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

They will both be recorded in joules.

Step-by-step explanation:

They will both be recorded in joules.

As energy and work both are measured in joules. If we define work it is the force applied on an object as it moves a certain distance and Energy is the ability to do work. Both are closely related because work done on an object can cause a change in energy. Now if a ball is rolling down a hill then  there is no frictional loss then its energy will be conserved but the work done by the ball will continuously change.Therefore they will both be measured in joules.
