A heron flies in a straight path for 5 min. at a constant rate of 2,000 ft. per min., and then flies another 6 min. at a constant rate of 3,000 ft. per min. How far does the heron fly during those 11 min.?

A. 22,000 ft.
B. 24,000 ft.
C. 26,000 ft.
D. 28,000 ft.

Answer :

I believe it is ‘D’. 5 x 2000 = 10,000. 6x 3000 = 18,000. 18,000 + 10,000 = 28,000.
D

Explanation: 5 x 2000 = 10000
3000 x 6 = 18000
18000+10000= 28000
