Ascuba diver dives down 15 feet into the ocean. he then swims 8 feet back up towards the surface. what is the postion of the scuba diver relative to the surface.

Final position of scuba diver = 7 feet below the surface.

Explanation;

 Let us take down direction as positive and up direction as negative.

 A scuba diver dives down 15 feet into the ocean, position of scuba diver = +15 feet.

 He then swims 8 feet back up towards the surface, position of scuba diver = -8 feet

 Overall position = 15 - 8 = 7 feet.

 So final position of scuba diver = 7 feet below the surface.
