A submarine is 100 meters below sea level when it begins to ascend at a steady rate of 3.0 miles per minute interpret values what is the y-intercept and the slope of this function? Use a complete sentence to answer.

What is the submarines elevation 10 min after it begins its ascent? Show your work.

y = 3x - 100

Step-by-step explanation:

below signifies that the 100 is negative

so we already know that the submarine is starting at - 100 meters, which is going to be the y-intercept

ascend means to rise up signifying that the slope is going to be positive and we already know that the submarine is ascending 3 miles per minute

so the equation would look like this:

y = 3x - 100
