A scuba diver is diving at a constant rate when her team on the surface requests a status update. She looks at her watch which says her elevation is 18 feet below sea level. 8 seconds
later, her elevation is 20 feet below sea level.
1. At what rate is her elevation changing? Use a signed number, and include the unit of
measurement in your answer.
2. How many more seconds until she reaches her goal depth of 50 feet? Explain or show
your reasoning.
3. How many seconds before her team requested an update was the diver at the surface of
