can you please answer the previos question
The new position of the submarine would be 442 feet below sea level.
To find the new position of the submarine, we need to subtract the amount it descended from its initial position.
Initial position: 550 feet below sea level
Descent: 108 feet
550 - 108 = 442 feet
Therefore, the new position of the submarine is -442 feet.
To find the new position of the submarine, we need to subtract the amount it descended from its original position.
The admiral started at 550 feet below sea level and the submarine descended 108 feet.
To find the new position, we subtract 108 feet from 550 feet.
550 feet - 108 feet = 442 feet
Therefore, the new position of the submarine is -442 feet.
