Answer this questio it would mean alot show work and explain ☺

Step-by-step explanation:

A:

Set the value of x to "5" and "30" to find the corresponding values of y (i.e. the altitudes of the plane at 5 or 30 minutes after beginning descent).

B:

Use the the same method to determine the set of coordinates (/ordered pairs) at each of the values for x given in part B of the question.

C:

The initial value is simply the starting value of y, or in other words, the altitude at which the plane begins to descend in this context;

So it will be 0 mins after the beginning of descent of the plane, i.e. when x = 0, therefore the answer is (0, 28000) as an ordered pair or simply 28000 ft.

D:

Rate of change is a fancy or more technical way of referring to the gradient of a function;

In this case of the context of a plane descending, it refers to the change in altitude over time;

This can be calculated using any two ordered pairs (or coordinates as I call them) using the formula of the difference in the y values divided by the difference in the x values.
