Explanation:
9. The height at the 4.5-hr mark is 16,000 ft. At the 5.0-hr mark, the plane has landed and thus, it's altitude is zero. The change in altitude
is 0 - 16,000 ft or -16,000 ft. The change in time
is 5 hr - 4.5 hr or 0.5 hr. So the rate of change of the altitude is
10. The initial temperature is 58°F and the final temperature is 76°F, therefore
The time elapsed is
The rate of change of the temperature is
