A diving bell is lowered to a depth of -124 metres, i.e 124 metres below sea level. If it rises 38 metres and then drops a further 65 metres from this point what is its new depth?
You really need to try these yourself. Think about what the problem says and do the required calculation. Show your work and someone will help you.
Please do not add second questions to the same post. Start a new one.
-124meters+38meters-65meters= is the process you need to do to get the new depth.
hint on answer = -1_1 find the middle number to get the total depth.
-124 + 38 - 65 = -151, which means 151 meters below sea level
