Question

A sumbarine is exploring the pacific ocean. At 502.5 feet below sea level, the water temperature is 63 1/4 °F. The sumbarine dives down 115 feet deeper, and the water temperature drops by 2 1/5 °F. What were the elevation and the water temperature after the sumbarine dove?

Answer 1

After driving, the elevation is 617.5 feet and the temperature is 61 1/20 °F;

A: 502 1/2 feet

Explanation:

After driving: H = 502.5 + 115 = 617.5 feet; T = 63 1/4 - 2 1/5

= 61 1/2 °F ; Part A : 502.5 feet = 502 1/2 feet
