An airplane has begun its descent for a landing. when the airplane is 150 miles west of its destination, its altitude is 32,000 feet. when the airplane is 100 miles west of its destination, its altitude is 14,000 feet. if the airplane's descent is modeled by a linear function, where will the airplane be in relation to the runway when it hits ground level? a) airplane will over shoot the runway by 61 feet b) airplane will over shoot the runway by 610 feet c) airplane will land short of the runway by 61 feet d) airplane will land short of the runway by 6.1 feet

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, when the airplane is 150 miles west of its destination, its altitude is 32,000 feet. When the airplane is 100 miles west of its destination, its altitude is 14,000 feet.

The airplane's descent is modeled by a linear function.

If linear function passing through two points, then the equation of line is

x-coordinate represents the distance in miles west of its destination and y-coordinate represents the altitude at that point.

The plane passing through (-150,32000) and (-100,14000).

The equation of line is

The value of y is 0, when airplane be in relation to the runway when it hits ground level.

Divide both sides by -360.

The value of x is negative, therefore the correct option is A.

//blooming serenity//

beautiful in the morning

mysterious at night

wonderous nature souring

with all it's mystical might

the flower that blooms

to the fox that looms

nocturnal creatures

with various features

a blooming flower soon in sight

as a new little hatchling fears to take flight  

afraid to leave it's calming nest,

but dear little bird, mother knows best

as sure as there are stars in the sky,

life is not about who, where what, when or why-

it's the journey that follows

adventures we swallow

of   nature's deep wonders,

natural disasters and storm's thunders.

blooming serenity

life and nature, truly is heavenly.

step-by-step explanation:

change of stock price/initial stock price on friday * total stock value = change of stock value

0.89/73.73 *x = 42.72

x=3539.04 = total stock value at initial stock price on friday .

total stock value at initial stock price on friday/ initial stock price on friday = number of shares

3539.04/73.73 = 48 shares

they own 48 shares of this stock
