-36 ft / 3 sec = ? ft/s
Answered by Joylyn Jayko
-36 ft / 3 sec = -12 ft
Note: I got the (-) sign because the question says descends (which means decrease and in this case, it is referred to as the (-) negative sign)
Note: Any time you multiply or divide a negative # with a positive # you will always get a negative #.
Hopes this helps
