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)

in one day Annie traveled 5 times the sum of the number of hours Brian traveled and two together they travel 20 hours find this
Stels [109]

Use the distributive property:

5*b+5*2+b=20

5b+10+b=20.

Combine like terms:

6b+10=20.

Subtract 10 from both sides:

6b+10-10=20-10

6b=10.

Divide both sides by 6:

6b/6=10/6

b=5/3=1 2/3.

Brian travels 1 2/3 hours. This means Annie travels

5(1 2/3+2)=5(3 2/3)=5(11/3)=55/3=18 1/3 hours.

Hope this helps!
