To find the new position of the submarine after it descends further, you can start with its initial depth and add the additional descent.
1. The initial position of the submarine is -550 feet (below sea level).
2. It descends an additional 108 feet.
To calculate the new position, you can use the equation:
\[
\text{New Position} = \text{Initial Position} - \text{Descent}
\]
\[
\text{New Position} = -550 - 108 = -658 \text{ feet}
\]
Therefore, the new position of the submarine is **-658 feet** below sea level.
