PLEASE HELP!! A diver went 24 feet below the surface of the ocean, and then 47 feet down. What is the diver's new position relative to the surface?
Write an expression to represent the problem, and solve.

no, the equation would be invalid since they are both not equal.

step-by-step explanation:

here you got

4y-6+4y 2-9

first, you would simplify the equation on the form.

4y-6+4y 2-9

then, move all the terms that contains a y to the left and all the other terms to the right.

+4y-4y+-9-6

finally, you will simplify the left and the right side of the equation.

y=-3

(hint): the answer is in the question.
