1) An airplane is at 10,000 feet above the ground. It needs to fly higher to reach the regular flying height. It increases its height at a constant rate of 2,000 feet per minute. How high will the plane be in 10 minutes?
Step-by-step explanation: We start with the 10,000 feet original height. From there, we can take 2,000 feet per minute and multiply it by 10 minutes. That gets us 20,000 feet. Add 20,000 to our original 10,000 and we get 30,000.
