Hot air balloons generally descend at a rate of 200 to 400 feet per minute. Four balloons descend 200 feet per minute for 9 minutes. Find the total change in altitude for all 4 balloons.

Respuesta :

Answer: [tex]1800\text{ feet}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Hot air balloons generally descend at a rate of 200 to 400 feet per minute.

Also, Four balloons descend 200 feet per minute for 9 minutes.

Then, the total change in altitude for all 4 balloons will be :-

[tex]200\times9=1800\text{ feet}[/tex]

Hence, the total change in altitude for all 4 balloons will be : Balloon descends 18 feet in 4 minutes.
