Answer for part A:
Answer for part B:
Answer to part C:

Answer 1

Answer:

1: The diver is 8 feet below sea level.

2: -20

3: -20 + 20 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

1: This is determined by adding 4 to negative 12. -12 +4 = -8

2: You get this by subtracting 12 from negative 8. -8 - 12 = -20

3: This is done by adding 20 to negative 20. -20 + 20 = 0
