Answer 1

A

Explanation:

that guy is right

Answer 2

`New\ Position = -415m`

Explanation:

Given

`Position= -300m`

`Descend = 115m`

Required

Determine the new position

It descends means that it moved in the downward position.

So, the new position is:

`New\ Position = Position - Descend`

`New\ Position = -300m - 115m`

`New\ Position = -415m`

Hence, the new position f the submarin is -415m
