Answer:
M=22, hope this helps
Explanation:
Set up Graham's altitude function A(m):
A(m) = 14040 - 50m <-- we subtract for descending
Set up Max's altitude function A(m):
A(m) = 12500 + 20m <-- we add for ascending
Set the altitudes equal to each other to solve for m:
14040 - 50m = 12500 + 20m
We type this equation into our search engine to solve for m and we get:
m = 22
