Question

An elevator is 25 m below ground level and it ascends at the rate of 5 m / min. Find the time taken by it to reach 50 m above the ground.
(Include statements to your answer. This question is from the integers chapter so also include the signs if they are any.)

Answer 1

Answer:

Height of the elevator below the ground level: -25

Rate of ascending = 5m/min

Distance = 25+50=75m

Time = Distance/Rate = 75/5 = 15 min

Thus, 15 min is the answer
