A plane takes off and climbs steadily gor 30 minutes until it reaches 35,000 feet. It travels at that altitude for 2 hours until it begins to descend to land, which it takes 15 minutes at a constant rate. Determine the domain and range.

Respuesta :

This is a function where:
x - time in minutes;
y = f ( x ) - altitude of a plane in feet.
Max altitude = 35,000 feet
0.5 h + 2 h + 15 min = 30 min + 120 min + 15 min = 165 min
Domain:
x ∈ [ 0;  165 ]
Range:
y ∈ [ 0;  35,000 ]
