Question

Paula went scuba diving over spring break, she started in the boat at 12 feet above sea level then dove 15.8 feet into the water. Once she got used to her gear she dove another 24.34 feet.

What was her final depth?

Answer 1

Answer:52.14

Explanation:

Paula started in the boat at 12 feet above sea level and then dove 15.8 feet into the water, so she was 12 + 15.8 = <<12+15.8=27.8>>27.8 feet below sea level.

After getting used to her gear, she dove another 24.34 feet, so her final depth was 27.8 + 24.34 = <<27.8+24.34=52.14>>52.14 feet below sea level. Answer:{52.14}.
