​please answer my question

Answer 1

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

if he went from 3 ft under and proceeded to go 2 more feet, he’ll end at at 5 feet under (-5 ) making B the right answer with -3 to -5

Answer 2

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The diver went down 3 feet below surface so that means negative when you see key words like went "below" or "down" surface level or something it means negative it's getting negative if you see the opposite it's positive.

In this case the diver went down 3 feet so -3 and then it says the diver went down an additional 2 feet so add and additional -2 to the -3 that would be -5 because 3 + 2= 5 it would be kind off the be same for negative
