Question 936450: the ocean floor is at -94 m. Antonio has reached -12 m. if he continues to move down at -4 m per hour, at what distance will he be from the ocean floor after 3 minutes? Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! y = meters depth below sea surface at x hours:
y = 4x + 12
---
meters depth after 3 minutes:
y = 4*(3/60) + 12
y = 12.2
---
meters distance from sea floor after 3 minutes:
94 - 12.2 = 81.8
