To determine when the two divers are at the same depth, we need to analyze the information given about their diving scenarios.
- The first student dived into the pool 3 minutes before the buzzer went off. This means, if we consider the time just at the buzzer as \( t = 0 \) minutes, this student has already been swimming for 3 minutes when the buzzer sounds.
- The second student dived from a board 4 feet above the ground right when the buzzer went off.
To estimate the time when both divers are at the same depth, we would look for a point in the graph where their heights (y-values) intersect after the buzzer goes off (after \( t = 0 \)).
Without the graph, we can't specify the exact coordinates, but typically this would involve finding the \( t \) coordinate (time after the buzzer) where the heights of both divers are equal (same \( y \) value).
Assuming the graph has coordinates representing time and height:
- You would look for a point that is plotted on the graph where both divers' paths intersect.
Given this understanding, a response to best estimate when the divers reach the same depth could be something like (time, height) where both lines on the graph meet. Depending on the specific choices available, select a point that logically represents when both divers are at the same height in the water.
If you have specific options available, please provide them, and I can help you choose the most accurate one based on the explanation provided.
