Lana is flying home to Orlando from Los Angeles. Previously, the pilot announced a cruising altitude of 35,000 feet. Towards the
end of the flight, the pilot announced the plane is beginning its descent, occuring at 2,500 feet per minute. A graph of the descent is shown.
If t represents the number of minutes since the airplane began descending, which of the following answer choices correctly gives the equation to represent the height, h(t), of the plane during descent? How long will it take the plane to land in Orlando?
