Question

3 Edward is scuba diving. He stops 14.3 m below the surface to look at a fish.

Then he swims down 5.8 m to look at a reef. He then swims up 3.2 m.
Which is the best approximation of Edward's current position relative to
the ocean surface?
CONS

A 12 meters
B 11 meters
C-17 meters
D-23 meters
Dara chose B as the correct answer. How might she have gotten that answer?

Answer 1

The best approximation of Edward's current position relative to the ocean surface is 11 meters below the surface.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine Edward's current position relative to the ocean surface, we need to calculate the net displacement by considering the changes in depth. Edward initially stops 14.3 m below the surface, then swims down 5.8 m, and finally swims up 3.2 m. So, the net displacement is 14.3 m - 5.8 m + 3.2 m = 11.7 m.

Therefore, the best approximation of Edward's current position relative to the ocean surface is approximately 11 meters below the surface (B).
