A deep-sea explorers ship is pulling up a diver at the rate of 25 feet per minute the doctor is 200 feet below sea level how deep was the diver 10 minutes ago

Is it the doctor or the diver who was 200 feet below sea level?

20 feat

450

To find out how deep the diver was 10 minutes ago, we can take the depth at the current time and subtract the rate at which the diver is being pulled up, multiplied by the time that has passed.

Let's assume that the depth below sea level is given by negative numbers. In this case, since the diver is 200 feet below sea level, the initial depth can be represented as -200.

Using the formula:

Depth 10 minutes ago = Initial Depth - (Rate × Time)

Depth 10 minutes ago = -200 - (25 × 10)

Depth 10 minutes ago = -200 - 250

Depth 10 minutes ago = -450 feet

Therefore, the diver was 450 feet deep 10 minutes ago.
