Always simplify expressions in the order of PMDAS
(Parenthesis, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)
(4-1) = (3)
[(1+6) + 2] = [7 + 2] = (9)
(3)x(9) = 27
The answer is 27
Let's assume
height of plane in feet =h
time in minutes =t
we are given
A plane is descending into the airport. After 5 minutes it is at a height of 6500 feet
so, we get one point as (5,6500)
After 7 minutes it is at a height of 5900 feet
so, we get another point as (7,5900)
we can use point slope form of line

points as
(5,6500)
x1=5, y1=6500
(7,5900)
x2=7 , y2=5900
Calculation of slope(m):

now, we can plug values


Equation of line:
we can use formula

we can plug values


Time of landing:
we can set h=0
and then we can solve for t

..............Answer
To round it to the nearest unit it would be 38. To round it to the nearest ten it would be 40.
