A balloon is 15 feet above the ground and rising at a rate of 10 feet per minute. A second balloon is 40 feet above the ground and descending at a rate of –2.5 feet per minute. How long will it take for the balloons to be at the same height?

Both of the ballon will meet at 35 above ground

Step-by-step explanation:

1st ballon:15 add 2 min will give you 35 { 15+10+10 }

2nd ballon: 40 add -2 min will give you 35  { 40+(-2.5)+(-2.5) }

i think it would be 43 movies that would have to be watched.

step-by-step explanation:

think about it. for the second plan, every month is 8 dollars. 8 x 12= 96. so thats the number for the second plan. now for the first plan, its annual meaning you have to pay 10 dollars every year. so now you have to get an equivalent amount of 86 since 96-10=86. 86 divided by 2 since every movie costs 2$ then you would have to watch 43 movies a year to get the same as the second plan. i really hoped this . have a wonderful day as well!
