A commercial jet has been instructed to climb from its present altitude of 6000 feet to a cruising altitude of 30,000 feet. If the plane ascends at a rate of 4000 ​ft/min, how long will it take to reach its cruising​ altitude? The plane will take nothing minutes.

Relax

Respuesta :

An easier way of doing this would be to subtract the initial attitude from the final attitude and divide by the rate of increase
= 30000 - 6000÷4000
= 24000÷4000
=6mins
