Answer:

Final position of scuba diver = 7 feet below the surface.

Explanation;

 Let us take down direction as positive and up direction as negative.

 A scuba diver dives down 15 feet into the ocean, position of scuba diver = +15 feet.

 He then swims 8 feet back up towards the surface, position of scuba diver = -8 feet

 Overall position = 15 - 8 = 7 feet.

 So final position of scuba diver = 7 feet below the surface.

I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST IN 5 MINUTES!<br> solve this and explain
miskamm [114]

Answer:

no, it's not.

Step-by-step explanation:

300- 284 = 16

284 - 236 = 48

236 - 156 = 80

156 - 44 = 112

for every one the top line goes up, the bottom line changes too, but it's not at a constant rate. it's not constant, therefore it cannot be linear.

the rate of change formula (or slope formula, they're the same thing) is :

y2- y1/ x2 -x1 and to solve it you plug in the points. x is the same a t and y is h

284-300/ 1-0

-16 /1

-16 (this is the rate of change between the first two points)

236- 284/ 2-1

-48/ 1

-48 (rate of change between the second and third points)

since the rate of change isn't constant, it's not possible for it to be a linear relationship.

What is the solution of the system equations y =-3x +8 y = -5x -2
Talja [164]

Answer:

Since both equations are equal to y, we can set them equal to each other.

y =-3x +8

y = -5x -2

-3x +8 = -5x -2

Solve for x.To do this, we need to get x by itself. First, move all the numbers to one side of the equation, and all the variables to the other.

-3x +8 = -5x -2

Add 5x to both sides

-3x+5x +8=-5x+5x -2

2x+8=-2

Subtract 8 from both sides

2x+8-8 = -2-8

2x=-10

Now, all the numbers are on one side, with the variables on the other. x is not by itself, it is being multiplied by 2. To undo this, divide both sides by 2

2x/2= -10/2

x= -5

Now, to find y, substitute -5 in for x in one of the equations.

y = -5x -2

y= -5(-5) -2

y=25-2

y=23

Put the solution into (x,y)

<u><em>The solution is (-5, 23)</em></u>
