A submarine was at a depth of 106.3 feet below sea level. After 5 hours, the submarine was at 481.2 feet below sea level. How far did the submarine travel?(1 point)

Question

The submarine traveled  feet.

Answer 1

To find out how far the submarine traveled, we need to calculate the difference between its initial and final depths.

1. Initial depth: 106.3 feet below sea level
2. Final depth: 481.2 feet below sea level

To find the distance traveled, we can subtract the initial depth from the final depth:

$$\text{Distance traveled}=\text{Final depth}-\text{Initial depth}$$

$$\text{Distance traveled}=481.2\text{ feet}-106.3\text{ feet}$$

$$\text{Distance traveled}=374.9\text{ feet}$$

Therefore, the submarine traveled 374.9 feet.
