D - Add, Subtract, Multiply, and Divide Integer A submarine Is at a depth of 350 feet below sea level. It makes the following moves. • First, it goes down 150 feet. • Next, it goes up 132 feet. • Then, it goes down 179 feet. • Finally, it goes down 145 feet. Which statement describes its current depth? A It is 692 feet below sea level, because -350 + (-150) + 132 + (-179) + (-145) = -692. B It is 8 feet below sea level, because 350 + (-150) + 132 + (-179) + (-145) = 8. c It is 256 feet below sea level, because 350 + (-150) +..(-132) + (-179) + (-145) = -256. D It is 342 feet below sea level, because 150 132 179 145 = 342. AI B ci D

We have the next information

A submarine Is at a depth of 350 feet below sea level means -350

First, it goes down 150 feet. means -150

Next, it goes up 132 feet. means +132

Then, it goes down 179 feet. means -179

Finally, it goes down 145 feet means -145

then we have the next operations

-350+(-150)+132+(-179)+(-145)=-692

The sing minus means that It is below the sea level

therefore the correct choice is

A It is 692 feet below sea level, because -350 + (-150) + 132 + (-179) + (-145) = -692.
