The Correct Answer Is Option (C) 29 Feet Deep
.
GIVEN
Depth descended by the diver - 52 feet.
Depth ascended by the diver - 23 feet
TO FIND
Depth of the scuba diver.
SOLUTION
We can simply solve the above problem as follows -
total Depth Descended by the diver = 52 feet.
Depth ascended by the diver = 23 feet.
Let the depth at which the diver is present be, x feet.
Depth after ascending = Total depth descended - depth ascended.
Putting the values in the above, we get -
Depth after ascending = 52-23 = 29 feet
Hence, the depth at which the diver is present after ascending is 29 feet.
