Answer:

25.92 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first minute, the hot air balloon rises 120 feet.

And it is given that, the balloon rises in a minute only 60% of the height it rose in the previous minute.  

Therefore, in the second minute, the balloon rises by (120×0.6) =72 feet

And in the third minute, the balloon rises by (72×0.6) =43.2 feet

Hence, in the fourth minute, the balloon rises by (43.2 ×0.6) =25.92 feet (Answer)
