Assume your line starts at zero, your first point is (-3,5) meaning your have a slope of 5/-3
[ f(x) = 5/-3x + b]
Let's assume
height of plane in feet =h
time in minutes =t
we are given
A plane is descending into the airport. After 5 minutes it is at a height of 6500 feet
so, we get one point as (5,6500)
After 7 minutes it is at a height of 5900 feet
so, we get another point as (7,5900)
we can use point slope form of line

points as
(5,6500)
x1=5, y1=6500
(7,5900)
x2=7 , y2=5900
Calculation of slope(m):

now, we can plug values


Equation of line:
we can use formula

we can plug values


Time of landing:
we can set h=0
and then we can solve for t

..............Answer
Answer:
0.4 or 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Dana surveyed 20 students in total and out of those 20 only 8 got an A
so:
now if you simplify it
and if you simplify it again:
or 0.4 in decimal
