Laurie is trying to stay within 10 feet of her current diving depth of –30 feet (with regard to sea level) so that the light is still good but she can be close to the sea life during her scuba dive. Which two equations can be used to find the minimum and maximum depths Laurie wants to stay between?

In this question, we are to look for the range (using two equations) where she wants to stay. It is indicated that the range is 10 feet above and below the 30 feet bracket under sea level.

So, simply -30+10 = -20ft and -30-10 = -40ft

The maximum depth would be
y=-20
The minimum depth would be
y=-40
