Aweather research airplane began descending from an altitude of 36000 feet above its base at a rate of 125 feet per minute how long did it take for the plan to land at its base

Hello! I would love to help!

Okay, basically, this problem is asking you to divide 36000 by 125 to get the number of minutes it takes.

36000/125=288

So, you could just say 288 minutes as your answer, but, let's put it in hours to be more realistic. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so let's divide it by 60.

288/60=4.8

.8 is equal to 48 minutes

So, 4 hours and 48 minutes is your answer, or 288 minutes!

Hope this helped! Comment if you have questions!
