C)

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1

check every option

A)The temperature falls 1.9°F from 4.3°F.


\text{the change in the temperature is 4.3-1.9=2.4}

B) A hot air balloon rises 4.1 meters from the ground

and then rises 2.3 meters more.


\text{change in height = 4.1 mt +2.3 mt=6.4}

C) A submarine goes 3.8 feet below the surface of the

ocean and then goes 2.5 feet farther down.


\text{change in depth = -3.8-2.5=-6.3}

D) The amount of money Sarah has after she buys milk

for $3.85 and bread for $2.45.


\text{the total amount = 3.85+2.45=4.3}

Step 2

compare

the number that approximates more to -7 is


-6.3\Rightarrow C)

I hope this helps you
