A glider begins its flight 7/10 mile above the ground. After 45 minutes, it is 2/5 mile above the ground. Find the change in height of the glider. If it continues to descend at this rate, how long does the entire descent last? The change in height ___ is
mile(s).

The entire descent lasts ___ hour(s).

Answer One: 3 miles. Answer Two:  105.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer One: Due to it being 7/10s we have to get 2/5 to a tenth. We multiply 2 and 5 by 2 to get 4/10s subtract 7/10s to 4/10s getting 3/10s which is equal to 45 minutes. So that means 4/10s is equal to an hour. The change in height is 3/10s. Answer Two: It begins it's flight at 7/10s above ground so after 45 minutes it's now at 4/10s due to 45 minutes equaling 3/10s, you need another hour to reach the ground so add 45 minutes to 60 minutes to get 105.
