Answer: Hi!

So first, I'm going to convert "350 below ground level" to -350, as this is what "below ground level" represents.

Now, we should find the total distance traveled. Take the absolute value of -350 (350) and add it to 10, the metres above ground level. This is 360.

We already know the rate of travel; 6m/min. All we have to do now is divide the total distance (360) by the rate of travel (6)!

360 ÷ 6 = 60

So, it took 60 minutes, or one hour, for the elevator to travel down the shaft!

Hope this helps!

Write the equation of a line, in Point slope form that passes through (5,6) and has a slope of -3​
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

y = -3x + 21

rodikova [14]
So.
.
Let's get started with formulas.
.
I KNOW you hate formulas!! So do I, but we have to use them. No "buts". 
.
So, how many minutes are in 2 weeks?
.
Search it up. For your convenience, it is 20,160 minutes.
.
Well, I think you have your answer, since each quiz is 5 minutes, 5 times 50 (5 x 50) is 2,500 minutes.
.
Yes, you can do 50 quizzes and MUCH MUCH more in 2 weeks.
.
Hope I helped!!
