A deep-sea exploring ship is at 500 ft below sea level. It ascends 25 feet per minute. How deep was the diver 4 minutes after?
- A 400 ft above sea level
- B 400 ft below sea level
- C 600 ft below sea level
- D 600 ft above sea level
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The deep-sea exploring ship is at 500 ft below sea level and ascends 25 feet per minute. After 4 minutes, the ship would have ascended 4 * 25 = 100 feet. Therefore, the ship would be at a depth of 500 - 100 = 400 feet below sea level.
