Answer:
-22 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
So we know that the diver descends (goes deeper) at a rate of 2 feet per second.
We also know that he/she is already at an elevation of -8 feet.
The first we need to do to solve this question is to find out the number of feet the diver descends in 7 seconds:
We do this by multiplying the amount of time by the number of feet (7 x 2)
as we all know 7 x 2 = 14 feet
So the diver dove deeper by 14 feet.
Now we have to add 14 and 8 to find the divers new elevation:
14 + 8 = -22 ft.
The divers' elevation after descending for 7 seconds is -22 ft.
plz mark me brainliest if correct :)
