4. As Jody dives below the water, its temperature decreases by 0.3 degrees Fahrenheit per foot that he dives. If
Jody is diving at a rate of 2.5 feet per second and the water at the surface is at a temperature of 68 degrees
Fahrenheit then what is the temperature of the water Jody is in after diving for 20 seconds?
(1) 48
(3) 57
(2) 53
(4) 83

Respuesta :

Answer:

83

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature of the water Jody is in after diving for 20 seconds is 53.

Given that,

  • The temperature should be decreased by 0.3 degrees.
  • The rate should be 2.5 feet per second and the temperature of 68 degrees.
  • And, the time taken is 20 seconds.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

[tex]= 68 - (2.5\times 20\times 0.3)[/tex]

= 68 - 15

= 53

Therefore we can conclude that the temperature of the water Jody is in after diving for 20 seconds is 53.
