Answer 1

To complete the statements regarding the fighter jet's descent from an initial altitude based on the graph:

The y-intercept of the linear function is the initial altitude of the fighter jet and represents the height above sea level when the descent begins.

If you have more specific information from the graph, please provide it, and I can adjust the completion accordingly!

Answer 2

The y-intercept of the linear function is__________ 800 feet, 8000 feet, 10 mins or 8 feet and represents the The y-intercept of the linear function is__________and represents the
elapsed time of the jet's descent or
initial altitude of the jet when it started its descent
or
final altitude of the jet when it started its descent
or rate of change during the jets descents

The rate of change is______ A. 80 ft/min B. -0.8ft/min C.-1/2ft/min D. -80ft/min
and repersents
a rise of 80 feet for each minute of elapsed time
or
a descent of 8 feet for each minute of elapsed time
or a descent of 80 feet for each minute of elapsed time or
a descent of 1.2 feet for each minute of elapsed time

Answer 3

Based on your statements and the choices given, here is how you can complete them appropriately:

1. The y-intercept of the linear function is 8000 feet, and it represents the initial altitude of the jet when it started its descent.

2. The rate of change is D. -80 ft/min, and it represents a descent of 80 feet for each minute of elapsed time.
