Question

A hot air balloon was flying at an altitude of 300 meters when the pilot decided to land by descending at a rate of 2 meters per second. For which of these rules does y represent the altitude of the hot air balloon, if x represents the number of seconds since the pilot started her landing?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is "150 seconds".

Step-by-step explanation:

$\to distance = 300 \ meter\\\\\to speed = 2 \ \frac{m}{s} \\\\\ formula: \\\\ \bold{speed = \frac{distance}{time}}$

$time= \frac{distance}{speed}$

        $=\frac{300}{2}\\\\=150 \ seconds$
