A hot air balloon went from an elevation of 5,038 feet to an elevation of 3,403 feet in 30 minutes. What was its rate of descent? The rate of the descent was ( ) feet per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

  In this case, we have a descent of 2,125 feet (initial height of 5,439 - ending height of 3,314). Since it took 34 minutes for the balloon to descend this distance, we divide the descent by the time (2,125/34). This gives us a rate of 62.5 feet per minute.  

  That means that the balloon traveled downward 62.5 feet every minute.  

The answer is m=-67.5 feet/minute

the answer is simply just 6n add the two together as they have an n

1 number

if we use a graphing calculator, there is only one such number that satisfies the conclusion of the mean value theorem, that is, a number such that

where the right-hand side is the average rate of change of f on the interval [0.5,0.75], which is the slope of the secant line.

in the attached graph, the black line is the secant line which has its slope as the average rate of change of f on [0.5,0.75], while the orange line is the only tangent line to the graph of f in the interval that satisfies the mvt conclusion.
