HELP ME A seagull can dive 45 meters below the surface of the water to reach a fish. It dives 11% of the total depth every 1 second. What is the depth of the seagull after 2 seconds? A.–2.475 meters B.–4.95 meters C.–9.9 meters D.–7.425 meters

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

How far has it dived after 1 second? remember it dives "11% of the total depth (45m) every 1 second"

OpenStudy (bj11684):

-44.89

The word 'of' means multiply. Go back and re-read what i gave, try again.

OpenStudy (bj11684):

4.95

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

And in the next second? remember it dives "11% of the total depth (45m) every 1 second"
