Question

While returning to the glider port, Monica descended for three minutes at the rate of 100m per minute. How much altitude did she lose? If her starting altitude was 728m, what was her final altitude. ​

Answer 1

Given :

Altitude descended by Monica in 1 min = 100 m

Time for which she descended = 3 mins

Starting altitude of Monica = 728 m

To Find :

Altitude Monica lose in 3 minutes and her final altitude = ?

Solution :

The altitude Monica descended in 3 minutes at a rate of 100 m per minute is :

= $100 \times 3$ m

= 300 m

So final altitude of Monica is :

= (728 - 300 ) m

= 428 m

Hence , Monica lose 300 altitude in 3 mins and her final altitude is 428 m .

Answer 2

Answer:

Monica lose 300 altitude in 3 mins and her final altitude is 428 m
