On Wednesday at 9 a. m., Winston went diving. Near the beach, the ocean's surface was at an elevation of -2.5 feet. During his deepest dive, Winston reached an elevation that was 20 1/5 times the elevation of the ocean's surface What elevation did Winston reach during his deepest dive?

step-by-step explanation:

no solution.

let x and 400 - x be the two numbers.  

==> 0.80x + 0.85(400 - x) = 400 - 68 from the statement of the problem.  

< ==> 0.80x + 0.85(400 - x) = 400 - 68  

==> 340 - 0.05x = 332  

< ==> -0.05x = -8 ==> x = 160, the first number ==> 400 - x = 240, the second number.
