Answer:

Rate of change  =  4,06 f/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The ascendent length  28 9/10   =  289/ 10

The time for that ascendent maneuver is total time 17 1/8 minutes  - spended time in the elevation 10 minutes, then

17 1/8  =  137/8

137/8  - 10   =  ( 137 - 80 ) /8   =  57/8 minutes

The rate of change in the diver´s elevation is

289 / 10 / 57/8

Rate of change  =  289*8/ 57*10

Rate of change  =  2312 / 570 ft/min

Rate of change  =  4,06 f/min
