y-axis = altitude in feet
x-axis = minutes
slope = y/x = feet/minute
According to above data, we know that 1800 feet is y-intercept and slope is -300 feet per minute (why slope is negative? because its approaching ground at a constant speed)
a. slope = -300
y-intercept = 1800
b. y = -300 x + 1800
c. Here we are given x = 2 minutes
y = -300(2) + 1800
y = -600 + 1800
y = 1200
The balloon will be 1200 feet high above the ground in 2 minutes.
d. Here we are given 300 feet which is y, and find x minutes.
y = -300 x + 1800
300 = -300x + 1800
300 - 1800 = - 300x
-1500 = -300x
1500 = 300 x
x = 1500 / 300
x = 5
The balloon will reach 300 feet above the ground in 5 minutes.
e. It asking when the balloon will reach the ground, if the balloon reaches the ground than the height will be 0, therefore x-intercept (y=0).
y = -300 x + 1800
0 = -300 x + 1800
-1800 = -300x
1800 / 300 = x
x = 6
The balloon will reach the ground in 6 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
AD is the bisector of ∠BAC
∠CPD = ∠BPD
1) ∠CAP = ∠BAP
Reason: definition of angle bisector
2) ∠CPD = 180 − ∠APC, ∠BPD = 180 − ∠APB
Reason: definition of supplementary angles
3) 180 − ∠APC = 180 − ∠APB
Reason: substitution
4) ∠APC = ∠APB
Reason: algebra
5) AP = AP
Reason: reflexive property
6) ΔAPC ≅ ΔAPB
Reason: ASA congruence
It takes two steps to solve an equation or inequality that has more than one operation: Simplify using the inverse of addition or subtraction. Simplify further by using the inverse of multiplication or division.
Answer:
I don't think so. Because what if that specific family member never checks their email. I think a good way would have been to email more than one or every person in that family (now since its extended you might not know everyone so just as many as you know of)
