Answer:

25.9 feet per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first 14 seconds, the change in elevation was –65×14= –910 feet.

For the remaining 6.5 minutes, the change in elevation was –1,470×6.5 = –9,555 feet.

The overall change in elevation was –910+ –9,555= –10,465 feet.

The total number of seconds was

6.5×60=14+390=404 seconds. The Average change in elevation was −10,465÷404=25.9 feet per second.

Find the slope of a line that passes through the given points. Write your answer below.

12345 [234]

Just use the formula:
$slope(m) = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Then, plug in numbers:
$m = \frac{1-4}{-2-3} = \frac{-3}{-5} = \frac{3}{5}$

And that would be your answer: 3/5 is the slope.
