The number f of miles a helicopter is from its destination 3 minutes after takeoff is given by f () = 60 - 1.52. The number f of miles a commercialjet is from its destination 3 minutes after takeoff is shown in the graph below.

A. 60 - 1.52
B. 60 + 1.52
C. 60 - 3
D. 60 + 3

Final answer:

The calculation of total displacement from a starting point involves vector addition, while the effect of wind on a flight path is influenced by wind speed and the plane's speed relative to the air. The tire rotation rate of a jet at takeoff is determined using linear speed and tire diameter, and the linear speed of a helicopter blade tip can be found with its rotational speed, though its average velocity over one revolution is zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems like there might be a typo or missing information in your question. You mentioned a function for the helicopter's distance (f), but there is no function provided for the commercial jet's distance, and you mentioned a graph without including it.

If the function for the helicopter's distance is
\( f(t) = 60 - 1.52t \) (assuming time
\( t \) in minutes), then the distance of the commercial jet is not given. Without information about the commercial jet's function or graph, it's not possible to determine the correct answer.

Please provide the function or additional information about the commercial jet's distance so that I can assist you further.
