Please answer this with work

Answer 1

-38 - 12x > -200

x = 13.5 min

Explanation:

let x = minutes of the dive

-38 ft - 12 ft/min(x) > -200 ft

-12 ft/min(x) < -162 ft

x > -162/-12 **flip the inequality when you divide by a (-) number

x > 13.5 min

Starting at -38 ft, he has to dive longer than 13.5 minutes to go deeper than -200 ft at a rate of -12 ft/min

Answer 2

Explanation:

-38 + -12x < -200
