Answer:

14 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

To create a linear equation that represents an airplane flying at an altitude of 30,100 feet, descending 2,150 feet per minute, that represents how long it will take for the airplane to touch down, proceed as follows:

2,150X = 30,100

X = 30,100 / 2,150

X = 14

Thus, the plane will take 14 minutes to reach the ground, descending 2,150 feet per minute from 30,100 feet.

Janet is buying a $28 necklace. The store reduces the price by 20% and then applies a $2 off coupon. How much will Janet pay for
Leokris [45]
Okay well the starting is 28 dollars, right. But since there is a 20 percent discount, you have to turn 20% to a decimal. That means moving the decimal sign twice to the left to make it .20. From the it would be .20*28, that should equal 5.6. Now, that 5.6 is the amount you have to take away, it is the price of the sale. From then, you subtract which is 28-5.6 which should be 22.4. From that 22.4 you now take away two dollars and then it should be 22.4-2 which should be 20.4. Now that is your answer, 20.4.
