Answer:

elevation refers to the height of the balloon. Descent refers to moving down, and rate of descent refers to how quickly the balloon moved down.

  In this case, we have a descent of 2,125 feet (initial height of 5,439 - ending height of 3,314). Since it took 34 minutes for the balloon to descend this distance, we divide the descent by the time (2,125/34). This gives us a rate of 62.5 feet per minute.

  That means that the balloon traveled downward 62.5 feet every minute. That's a fast moving balloon!

Step-by-step explanation:

hopefully this helps

Consider the geometric sequence below.
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

f(1) = 8

Common ratio: 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(1) means the firs term in a sequence.

In the function f(n), represented by 8, 4, 2, 1, .., the first term is 8.

f(1) = 8

To find the common ratio, divide any term by the term before it.

We can use any two of the given terms in the sequence EXCEPT for 8 because it is the first term and does not have a term before it.

I choose to divide the second term by the first term:

4/8 = 1/2 = 0.5

Julia is going for a walk through the neighborhood. What unit of measure is most appropriate to describe the distance she walks?

Answer:

Possibly meters or feet/yards.

A walk through a neighborhood would be less than a mile/kilometer but much further than an inch/centimeter.
