Two minutes after a diver enters the water, he has descended 52 feet After 5 minutes, he has descended 130 feet At what rate is the scuba diver descending

26ft/minute

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks to calculate the rate at with a scuba diver is descending.

Firstly, we should know that the rate at which the scuba diver is descending is calculated as the total amount of distance descended, divided by the total amount of time taken.

The total amount of distance descended is 52ft + 130ft = 182ft

The total amount of time taken is 5 + 2= 7 minutes

The rate of descending is thus 182ft/7min = 26ft/minute

answer: the anser is 3

step-by-step explanation:

c- 2o is equal to 9

7 ft 6 in means 7 1/2, because 6 in is 1/2 of a foot. 7 ft 8 in means 7 2/3 because 8 in is 2/3 of a foot. 23/3 = 7 2/3. 15/2 = 7 1/2.

23/3   *   15/2   = 57 1/2
