Question

A scuba diver is 15.5 feet below the surface of the water. If the diver continues to swim downward at a rate of 2.5 feet per second, what is her location, in feet, relative to the surface after 712 seconds?

Answer 1

I think the answer is: 1,795.5 feet because
2.5 x 712= 1,780
1,780 + 15.5 = 1795.5 feet
