Question

A submarine at the ocean's surface was ordered to dive to 550 ft below sea level. Next, the sub dived another 270 ft before coming up 400ft. After all of the maneuvers, what was the submarine's new depth.

Is it adding or subtracting integers.

Answer 1

It is both, as you subtract 550 from 0, and then you subtract another 270, but then add 400. You subtract 2 numbers then add 1.
