Question

The expression -250+12.1m represent a submarine that begins at a depth of 250 feet below sea level and ascended at a rate of 12.1 ft.per min. what was the depth of the submarine after six minutes 

Answer 1

Explanation:

The depth of the submarine after 6 minutes would be -182.9 ft. below sea level. This is calculated by taking the starting depth of -250 ft. and adding 12.1 ft. for each minute (6 minutes x 12.1 ft. = 72.6 ft.). Therefore, -250 + 72.6 ft. = -182.9 ft. below sea level.
