pam goes skydiving and falls at a constant rate toward the ground. the equation y = -32x + 13,500 represents the situation where y is the height of pam in feet above the ground and x is the seconds since she jumped.

which statement describes the situation?

from a starting position of 13,500 feet above the ground, she is ascending at 32 feet per second.

from a starting position of 32 feet above the ground, she is descending at 13,500 feet per second.

from a starting position of 32 feet above the ground, she is ascending at 13,500 feet per second.

from a starting position of 13,500 feet above the ground, she is descending at 32 feet per second.

From a starting position of 13,500 feet above the ground, she is descending at 32 feet per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is in slope intercept form.

The slope (m) is -32. This can be used as a unit rate: -32 ft per second.

The y-intercept (b) is 13,500. It would make most sense if she started at 13,500 ft in height.

From a starting position of 13,500 feet above the ground, Pam is descending at 32 feet per second.

x = 10.1

step-by-step explanation:

all of the angles of a tirangle add up to 180º

180 - 65 = 115 (since we already know the value of one angle)

(2x + 7) + (8x + 7) = 115

(combins like terms) 10x + 14 = 115

(isolate the variable subtract 14 from both sides): 10x = 101

(find the variable divide both sides by 10): x = 101/10

x = 10.1
