An airplane is preparing to land at an airport. It is 36,000 feet above the ground and is descending at the rate of 3,200 feet per minute. At the same airport, another airplane is taking off and will ascend at the rate of 2,800 feet per minute. When will the two airplanes be at the same altitude and what will that altitude be? Use pencil and paper. Use two other methods to solve the problem. Explain which methods are easier to use and which are more difficult to use for the situation. They will be at the same altitude in _ minutes, when their altitude will be _ feet.

it should be a and d. lmk if i'm wrong xd

how to award brainliest:

you must wait until 2 people answer to award brainliest. i'm pretty sure that it should be next to the "" and "comments" buttons.  

you have to find the same variables -3n - 5n so this would be -3n +(-5n) which equals -9n
