A scuba diver was swimming at a depth of 8 meters below the surface of the water. He saw an eel swimming 3 meters above him and a squid swimming 4 meters below him. Which of the following methods shows a correct way to find the depth at which the eel was swimming?
Steve, there is not an answer choice for -8+3=5. i have been looking for this answer for over 4 hours and haven’t been able to find it. i just want the letter. please.

To find the depth at which the eel was swimming, we need to consider the position of the scuba diver, the eel, and the squid in relation to the surface of the water.
Given that the scuba diver is swimming at a depth of 8 meters below the surface, we can use this as our reference point.
To find the depth at which the eel was swimming, we can use the concept of relative position. Relative position means determining the position of one object with respect to another object or reference point.
In this case, we can determine the depth at which the eel was swimming by considering its position relative to the scuba diver's position.
Since the eel is swimming 3 meters above the scuba diver, we need to add this distance to the depth at which the scuba diver is swimming.
Therefore, to find the depth at which the eel was swimming, we can add 3 meters to the scuba diver's depth of 8 meters.
Depth of eel = Depth of scuba diver + Distance above scuba diver
Depth of eel = 8 meters + 3 meters
Depth of eel = 11 meters
Therefore, the correct way to find the depth at which the eel was swimming is to add the distance above the scuba diver (3 meters) to the depth of the scuba diver (8 meters). The eel was swimming at a depth of 11 meters below the surface of the water.
