A parachutist falls at a speed of about 12 miles per hour. Find this speed in feet per second

Mathematics

So in 1 hour, the parachutist will fall 12 miles or
12 mi/1hour

convert
1 hour=60 mins
1 min=60 seconds
1 hour=60 times 60 seconds=360 seconds
12 miles per 360 seconds


convert miles to feet
5280 feet per mile
12 miles times 5280=63360 feet

63360/360
do the math and simplify
63360/360=6336/36=176

176 feet per second

23. What is the equation of the line that contains the points (2, 1) and (-1, -8)?
Sauron [17]
I'm guessing this is a slope problem, so the equation would be like this: y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

m =  \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2}
Using this,
m =  \frac{1  + 8}{2  + 1}  =  \frac{9}{3}
Which is equal to,
m = 3
