It takes Michelle 25 minutes to descend 850 feet of the beginner slope at Mount Washington. Find her rate of descent (slope). If Michelle begins her descent at a height of 1200 feet, find a linear equation to describe her skiing motion.

Respuesta :

Answer:

h = 1200 - 34t

Step-by-step explanation:

25 minutes, descend 850 feet, so each minute, descend 850/25 = 34 feet

after t minutes, descend 34*t feet,

starting at 1200 feet, so the height is h = 1200 - 34t
