To answer this question, we need to find the distance traveled by the small submarine. We need to subtract the distances in this case. Then, we have:


d=-180-(-1320)=-180+1320=1140ft

Then, the small submarine traveled 1140 feet from -1320 feet to -180 feet.

If we need to know how fast the submarine must be, we need to divide the previous result by 60 minut
