Question

a commercial aircraft is carrying passengers from new york to denver. once the aircraft reaches cruising altitude, it flies at an elevation of 35,000 feet. it stays at its cruising altitude, meaning it does not ascend or descend during this time. complete the table to show the aircrafts elevation after reaching its cruising altitude. time since reaching cruising altitude (min) elevation (ft) 0 35,000 1 2 3 4

Explanation:

Step1: Understand the problem

The aircraft stays at cruising altitude (35,000 ft) and doesn't ascend/descend. So elevation remains constant over time.

Step2: Fill the table

For time = 1 min: Elevation = 35,000 ft (since it doesn't change).
For time = 2 min: Elevation = 35,000 ft.
For time = 3 min: Elevation = 35,000 ft.
For time = 4 min: Elevation = 35,000 ft.

Answer:

Time since reaching cruising altitude (min)	Elevation (ft)
1	35,000
2	35,000
3	35,000
4	35,000
