Question

John jumps off a boat into the ocean from a
point that is 37 feet above the surface of
the water. If he swims 4.2 down, what is the
distance between his current position and
the point from which he jumped?

Answer 1

37 feet up you add 4.2 to get your answer of 41.2 feet down by his current point he is now to the point when he jumped. (37+4.2=41.2)
