Answer:

-29.7 feet that is 29.7 feet below the ocean surface.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent divers new depth.

We have been given that a diver went 25.65 feet below the surface of the ocean. This means that the diver's elevation will be negative 25.65 with respect to surface of ocean.

Again, the diver went down 16.5 feet, so the diver's elevation after second dive would be -25.65+(-16.5).

Finally, the diver rose 12.45 feet. This means that diver's elevation at the 3rd dive would be positive 12.45 feet.

\text{Diver's final elevation}=-25.65+(-16.5)+12.45

x=-42.15+12.45

x=-29.7

Therefore, the diver's new depth would be -29.7 feet that is 29.7 feet below the ocean surface.

Solve the equation for x by graphing -2x + 3 = -3(-x) - 2
adoni [48]

Answer:

  x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to solve this. One is to graph the left side of the equation, graph the right side of the equation, and look for the point where those graphs intersect. It is at x = 1. The first attached graph shows this solution.

__

Another method for solving such an equation is to subtract one side from the other and look for the value of x that makes the resulting expression zero.

  (-2x +3) -(-3(-x) -2) = 0

A graphing calculator doesn't need to have this simplified. If it is simplified, it becomes ...

  -5x +5 = 0

So, the graphed line is y = -5x+5. Its x-intercept is x=1, the solution of the original equation. The graph of this is shown in the second attachment.
