To find the rate of the elevator in feet per minute, we need to convert the time from seconds to minutes. Since 1 minute is equal to 60 seconds, we can use the ratio 1 minute/60 seconds.
To find the rate, we divide the distance traveled by the time it took. In this case, the distance is 480 feet and the time is 30 seconds.
Step-by-step calculation:
1. Convert 30 seconds to minutes:
30 seconds * (1 minute / 60 seconds) = 0.5 minutes
2. Divide the distance traveled by the time taken to get the rate:
480 feet / 0.5 minutes = 960 feet per minute
The expression that represents the rate, in feet per minute, of the elevator is 960 ft/min.
