A scuba diver descends 10 ft in an hour.
If he is at -40 feet, how many hours has he been descending?
Answers
Answer:
He has been descending for 4 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
10 ft / 1 hr → 40 ft / 4 hr
You can think of this in terms of ratios. Another way to think about this is: After one hour passes, you descend 10 ft. Another hour passes, you descend 20 ft. So on so forth.
the answer is 4 hours lol
