A diver is at 1000 ft below the sea level. The ship pulls him up for 305 ft. What is the new position of the diver?
- A.
695 ft below sea level
- B.
695 ft above sea level
- C.
1305 ft below sea level
- D.
1305 ft above sea level
Correct Answer
A. 695 ft below sea levelExplanation
The diver starts at 1000 ft below sea level and is pulled up by the ship for 305 ft. This means that the diver's position has changed by 305 ft above his starting point, but since he started below sea level, his new position will still be below sea level. Therefore, the correct answer is 695 ft below sea level.Rate this question:

A deep-sea exploring ship is at 500 ft below sea level. It ascends 25 feet per minute. How deep was the diver 4 minutes after?
- A.
400 ft above sea level
- B.
400 ft below sea level
- C.
600 ft below sea level
- D.
600 ft above sea level
Correct Answer
B. 400 ft below sea levelExplanation
The deep-sea exploring ship is at 500 ft below sea level and ascends 25 feet per minute. After 4 minutes, the ship would have ascended 4 * 25 = 100 feet. Therefore, the ship would be at a depth of 500 - 100 = 400 feet below sea level.Rate this question:

Erik owes Jenny P200. He paid her P165, borrowed P75, paid P23 and paid 60 again. How much money does Erik still owe to Jenny?
- A.
P50
- B.
P87
- C.
P27
- D.
Jenny owes Erik because Erik overpaid.
Correct Answer
C. P27Explanation
After paying P165 and borrowing P75, Erik's debt to Jenny is reduced to P200 - P165 - P75 = P-40. However, since Erik paid P23 and P60 again, his debt decreases further by P23 + P60 = P83. Therefore, Erik still owes Jenny P-40 - P83 = P-123. Since a negative amount indicates that Jenny owes Erik, the correct answer is P27.Rate this question:
