Answer:

15 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Change in distance is the same each time Ballon is lowered ;

Number of times Ballon is lowered = 5 times ;

Total change in distance = 75 m

Change in distance per time lowered equals ;

(Total change in elevation / Numbe rof times Ballon is lowered)

75m / 5

= 15 m

Hence, Ballon height changes by 15 m each time it is lowered.

The integer gives the lowering rate.
