Answer:

The airplane ascends [tex]81\,\frac{3}{4}[/tex] meters in one second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the airplane ascends [tex]54\,\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ([tex]\frac{109}{2}[/tex]) meters in [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] seconds, we calculate the ascent rate of the airplane by simple rule of three:

[tex]x = \frac{\frac{109}{2}\,m }{\frac{2}{3}\,s } \times 1\,s[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{327}{4}\,m[/tex]

[tex]x = 81\,\frac{3}{4}\,m[/tex]

The airplane ascends [tex]81\,\frac{3}{4}[/tex] meters in one second.
