Two hot air balloons are flying above a park. One balloon started at a height of 3,000 feet above the ground and is decreasing in height at a rate of 40 feet per minute. The second balloon is rising at a rate of 50 feet per minute after beginning from a height of 1,200 feet above the ground.

Given that h is the height of the balloons after m minutes, determine which system of equations represents this situation.
A. h=3,000-40m
h=1,200+50m

B. h=3,000+40m
h=1,200-50m

C. h=3,000m-40
h=1,200m+50

D. m=3,000-40h
m=1,200+50h
