3: Select the correct equation for the given situation. Then, select the solution for that equation. Two research submarines start to rise vertically toward the ocean surface. The Tri-I sub is at 4,863 feet below sea level (or -4,863 feet) and is ascending 81.1 feet per minute. The Quad-II sub is at 3,645 feet below sea level (or -3,645 feet) and is ascending 76.9 feet per minute. If the ocean surface is at 0 feet, how many minutes (m) must elapse for the two submarines to reach the same depth? m = 290 minutes m = 145 minutes m = 53.8 minutes 4,863 - 76.9m = 3,645 - 81.1m O -4,863 + 81.1m = - 3,645 + 76.9m 0 - 4, 863 + 76.9m = -3, 645 + 81.1m – 4, 863 – 81.2m 2 – 3, 645 + 76.9m Om < 53.8 minutes

Unknown, the correct equation is:

- 4,863 + 81.1m = - 3,645 + 76.9m

And to solve for m, you use the standard form:

Like terms:

81.1m - 76.9m = -3,645 + 4,863

4.2m = 1,218
