Question

A hot air balloon starts at a height of 6 feet above the ground and then rises at a rate of 20 feet each minute. Which equation gives the height h in feet as a function of time t in minutes? Oh=6t Oh = 20$ Oh=20t + 6 Oh=6+ 20​

Answer 1

The height h it will travel in t minutes

Height h = 6 + 20(t)

Oh=20t + 6

Explanation:

A hot air balloon starts at a height of 6 feet above the ground and then rises at a rate of 20 feet each minute.

Initial height h0 = 6 feet

Then it travel 29 feet each minute

Rate = 20 feet/ minute

The height h it will travel in t minutes

Height h = 6 + 20(t)
