Answer:

1320 feet

Explanation:

All we have to do is multiply the rate of change of altitude by the time it took the altitude to change.

The altitude of an airplane is decreasing at a rate of 44 feet per second. After 30 seconds, the change is altitude is:

44 * 30 = 1320 feet

The altitude of the airplane has changed by 1320 feet.
