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.

Item 20 A bathtub is draining at a constant rate. After 2 minutes, it holds 30 gallons of water. Three minutes later, it holds 1
levacccp [35]
Y=mx+c since its at constant rate
at (30,2)
30=m2+c-----(1)
at(12,3)
12=m3+c-----(2)
by multiplying (2)by 2.5,
30=7.5m+2.5c-----(3)
by comparing (1) and (3)
2m+c=7.5m+2.5c
5.5m+1.5c=0
5.5m=-1.5c
m=-1.5/5.5c----(4)
sub 4 into 1,
-6/11c+c=30
c=66
m=-1.5/5.5*66=-18
Equation : y=-18x+66

u can try substituting back 2min and 3 mins to verify it works
