Answer:

if it's 30 minutes then it should be 58 1/2

Explanation:

58 1/2 should be the real answer because it's rating the descent if it's for 30 minutes, if it's 38 then I don't know, but I hope that helps a bit.

Answer:

56.5?

Explanation:

I just subtracted 5,275 to 3,128 and got 2,147 and then divided that to 38 minutes and got 56.5.
