Answer:

7 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question :

Descent = ascent

Initial height * descent rate = initial position * ascent rate

Plane on ground is at an initial position or height of 0

42000 - 3300t = 0 + 2700t

Where, t = time

-3300t - 2700t = 0 - 42000

-6000t = - 42000

t = 42000 / 6000

t = 7 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

A=P( 1+rt)

A= Total amount

P= Principal

r = yearly interest

t= time in year

672=600(1+0.04t). Distribute

672=600+600x0.04t

72= 24t

t= 3 years

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation –5x 2y= 10 ?
Sladkaya [172]
In the equation y=mx+b, the variable m represents the slope of the line. Therefore, the equation -5x+2y=10 can be rearranged into 2y=5x+10. Isolate the y to get y=2.5x+5. The slope of the line is 2.5
