One possible way:
-86+(4*12)=-38
-86 is the number where the diver is. 86 feet below the surface.
4*12 is the total number of feet he has ascended in 12 minutes.
Because he is ascending, so you add 4*12 (or 48) to -86.
The answer is -38, meaning he's 38 feet below the surface.
The diver is now 38 feet below the surface.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
y=3x+17
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope formula y2-y1/x2-x1=m
y=3x+b
Find b (y-intercept), enter the given coordinates (-3, 8)
8=3(-3)+b
8=-9+b
b=17
y=3x+17

The problem is an arithmetic sequence with:
a₁ = 206,300
an = 208,400
n = 2013 - 2000
n = 13
To find the annual increase, use this following formula
an = a₁ + d(n - 1)
d represents the annual increase
Input the numbers
an = a₁ + d(n - 1)
289,400 = 206,300 + d(13 - 1)
289,400 = 206,300 + 12d
289,400 - 206,300 = 13d
83,100 = 12d
12d = 83,100
d = 83,100/12
d = 6,925
The annual increase is $6925
Okay, take a look at diagram 1 (I know it's rubbish I did it on paint :D), this shows all the information you've given in the question. The two coordinates and the distance between them.
Now if we draw additional lines on this diagram, we can make a right-angled triangle (this is on diagram 2). We can also work out the lengths of the additional sides because we know both coordinates at the end-points of the additional lines.
Finally because this is a right-angled triangle, Pythagoras' theorem must apply to its sides meaning



therefore x=5.
