Question

A hot air balloon rose from a height of 100 m to 400 m in 3 minutes what was the ballons rate of change

Answer 1

Answer:

100 m/minute

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Initial height of balloon=100 m

Final height of  balloon=400 m

Time taken =3 minute

We have to find the rate of change of balloon height.

Change in height of balloon=Final height-initial height=400 -100= 300 m

Rate of change of balloon height=$\frac{300}{3}=100 m/minute$

Hence, the rate of change of balloon height is 100 m/minute.

Answer 2

Each minute 100 meters would go by so the answer is 100 meters per minute
