The answer is 168 seconds.
We can create two points.
30 feet below the surface of the water 10 seconds after he entered the water
100 feet below the surface after 40 seconds
So we have (10, 30) and (40, 100)
Plug this values into the slope formula:
m = y2-y1/x2-x1
m = (100 - 30)/(40 - 10)
m = 70/30
m = 2 1/3
7x12=84 that is a another answer
Answer:
x=-11
Step-by-step explanation:
the (x+14) line is half of the (17+x) line, so in order to solve this we would have to set it up like this:
2(x+14)=17+x
distribute
2x+28=17+x
x=-11
