A submarine submerged at a depth of -15m, dives 20m more .what is the new depth of the submarine? solution with explain
-15+20=5
-15-20 = ?
-15+20=-35
To find the new depth of the submarine, we need to add the additional depth to the initial depth.
The initial depth of the submarine is -15m (submerged at a depth of -15m), and the submarine dives an additional 20m.
To represent the initial depth mathematically, it can be written as -15m.
Now, to find the new depth, we add the additional depth of 20m to the initial depth:
-15m + 20m = 5m
Therefore, the submarine's new depth is 5m.
