A submarine was 144 feet below sea level. A shark was hovering at a constant depth above the submarine. The submarine’s depth was twice the depth of the shark.

Which integer expression describes the position of the shark in relation to sea level?

feet : Shark is 72 feet below sea level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent depth of the shark.

We have been given that the submarine’s depth was twice the depth of the shark. This means that depth of submarine would be .

We have been given that a submarine was 144 feet below sea level, so submarine's elevation would be .We can represent this information in an equation as:

To find shark's position, we need to solve for x.

Therefore, feet represents shark's elevation, which represents that shark is 72 feet below sea level.

d? maybe

step-by-step explanation:

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
