Question
In 2012, James Cameron descended to the bottom of Challenger Deep in the
Marianas Trench; the deepest point in the ocean. The vessel he rode in was called
DeepSea Challenger.
Challenger Deep is 35,814 feet deep at its lowest point
a. DeepSea Challenger's descent was a change in depth of (-4) feet per
second. We can use the equation y = -4x to model this relationship, where
y is the depth and x is the time in seconds that have passed.
How many seconds does this model suggest it would take for DeepSea
Challenger to reach the bottom?
