A scuba diver wants to dive more than 2/12 times her previous deepest dive. That means she has to dive at least 70 feet below the surface of the ocean. This dive is represented by the inequality 2/12p<−70, where p is the distance below the surface of her previous deepest dive.


Select from the drop-down to correctly interpret the solution of this inequality.


The scuba diver's previous deepest dive was

Choose...

feet below the surface of the ocean.

Respuesta :

The distance below the surface of her previous deepest dive is 420 feet

Given the inequality expression representing the dive given as:

  • 2/12p<−70

We are to get the solution to the inequality expression;

Given;

2/12p<−70

Multiply both sides by 12:

2p < 70 * 12

2p < 840

Divide both sides by 2

2p/2 < 840/2

p < 420

Hence the distance below the surface of her previous deepest dive is 420 feet
