Answer 1

To represent the submarine's position relative to the surface after 6 minutes, we can use the following expression:

\[ \text{Position} = \text{Rate} \times \text{Time} \]

Where:

• Rate is 50 meters per minute (the submarine descends).
• Time is 6 minutes.

So, the expression to calculate the position is:

\[ \text{Position} = 50 , \text{meters/minute} \times 6 , \text{minutes} = 300 , \text{meters} \]

Therefore, after 6 minutes, the submarine is 300 meters below the surface.

Now, converting 300 meters to feet (using the conversion factor 1 meter = approximately 3.28084 feet):

\[ 300 , \text{meters} \times 3.28084 , \text{feet/meter} \approx 984.25 , \text{feet} \]

Thus, the submarine's position relative to the surface after 6 minutes is approximately 984 feet below sea level.

Answer 2

Just answer

Answer 3

984 feet below sea level.

Answer 4

no I mean what makes you think its 984

Answer 5

I apologize for any confusion. My previous answer assumed the conversion from meters to feet, which resulted in approximately 984 feet.

Here's the direct conversion:

1 meter = 3.28084 feet.

So, for the submarine that descends 300 meters in 6 minutes:

\[ 300 , \text{meters} \times 3.28084 , \text{feet/meter} \approx 984.25 , \text{feet} \]

Thus, after 6 minutes, the submarine's position is approximately 984 feet below sea level.

Thank you for your patience!

Answer 6

So your saying 6+50 is 984?

Answer 7

I apologize for any misunderstanding. The calculations are not based on adding 6 and 50. Instead, the submarine descends at a rate of 50 meters per minute. In 6 minutes, it descends a total of:

\[ 50 \text{ meters/minute} \times 6 \text{ minutes} = 300 \text{ meters} \]

Then, we convert that distance from meters to feet, which gives us:

\[ 300 \text{ meters} \times 3.28084 \text{ feet/meter} \approx 984.25 \text{ feet} \]

So the values 6 and 50 are not added together. Instead, we calculate total descent over time. The final answer is that the submarine is approximately 984 feet below sea level after 6 minutes. Thank you for allowing me to clarify!

Answer 8

The responses say 5, 6, x, -,

Answer 9

I apologize for the confusion. It looks like you're looking for a specific format for the expression representing the submarine's position after 6 minutes.

To represent the position of the submarine with the responses provided:

Expression: \[ \text{Position} = 6 \times 50 \]

Putting it in the format with your responses available:

• Use 6 for time (in minutes).
• Use 50 for the rate (in meters per minute).
• Use x for multiplication.
• Use - for indicating below sea level.

The final expression can be stated as:

\[ 6 , x , 50 \]

So if the expression needs to show the submarine's position in terms of being below sea level, you could indicate:

Position = 6 x 50 = 300 meters which means 300 meters below sea level.

If you need it expressed in feet:

300 meters = 984 feet.

So your final response using the format:

Position after 6 minutes = 984 feet below sea level.

Let me know if this aligns with what you need!

Answer 10

What is the - then

Answer 11

The negative sign (-) in the context of the submarine's position under the water typically indicates that the position is below sea level.

So, using the provided responses, the expression for the submarine's position relative to the surface after 6 minutes can be represented as:

Position = \(6 , \text{minutes} \times 50 , \text{meters/minute} - \)

This implies that the calculated position is below sea level. The full statement would be:

• The expression to represent the submarine's position would be:
  • 6 x 50 - (indicating 300 meters below sea level).

So when you see the "-", it signifies that the value calculated is a depth below sea level.

If you put it all together, after 6 minutes, the submarine is:

300 meters - below sea level, or approximately 984 feet - below sea level.

If "feet" is not included in your possible responses and only numbers and symbols are permitted, then you would simply express it as "300 -".
