Laurie is trying to stay within 10 feet of her current diving depth of -30 feet (with regard to sea level) so that the light
is still good but she can be close to the sea life during her scuba dive. Which two equations can be used to find the
minimum and maximum depths Laurie wants to stay between?
-30 - x = 10 and -30 - x = -10
• -30 + x = 10 and -30 + x = -10
O x + 10 = 30 and x + 10 = -30
O x - 10 = 30 and x - 10 = -3

Answer:

[tex] \boxed{-30\:– \: x \:= \: 10 \: \: and \: -30 - x = -10} [/tex]

The equations can be used to find the  minimum and maximum depths are (a) [tex]-30 - x = 10[/tex] and [tex]-30 - x = -10[/tex]

The current diving depth (d) is given as:

[tex]d = -30ft[/tex]

The position (p) she tries to stay is given as:

[tex]p = 10ft[/tex]

Represent the minimum and the maximum distances with x.

So, the distances are calculated using:

[tex]d - x = p[/tex] and [tex]d - x = -p[/tex]

Substitute values for d and p

[tex]-30 - x = 10[/tex] and [tex]-30 - x = -10[/tex]

Hence, the equations can be used to find the  minimum and maximum depths are (a) [tex]-30 - x = 10[/tex] and [tex]-30 - x = -10[/tex]
