Question

A research team aboard an underwater research vessel descends 1,500 feet beneath the surface of the water. They then rise 525 feet and descend again 350 feet. Where are they currently located?

Answer 1

they are currently at -1325 ft.

Explanation:

first yo go up or in other words you subtract 525 to 1500 which gives you 973 then they descend 350 so they are going back down so you add 350 onto 975

Answer 2

-1,325 ft below sea level

Explanation:

0(surface level) - 1,500 = -1,500

-1,500 + 525 = -975

-975 - 350 = -1,325
