The canyon is deeper or has a lower elevation than the scuba diving location.
To solve any equation, you do whatever you need to do
to wind up with the unknown quantity all alone on one side.
BUT ... whatever you do to one side of the equation, you must
also do to the other side.
Here, we have the
he original equation: -15 = a/5
Multiply each side by 5 : -75 = a
and bada-bing, THERE's the solution !
Answer: X < 3
Step-by-step explanation:

3 > x --- The sign flips when dividing in negative numbers.
Since three is greater than x
X is less than 3
meaning
X < 3
There's really no way to write this equation as a word problem .
