Question

a submarine dives 462 feet beneath the surface. it then climes up 250 feet. what is the depth of the submarine now?

Answer 1

The surface would be 0.

First it dives 462:

0 - 462 = -462 feet,

It then climbs 250:

-462 + 250 = -212

The submarine is at -212 feet. ( 212 feet below the surface.)
