Mr. Mole left his burrow and started digging his way down at a constant rate.
2 answers:
Mr. Mole's burrow was at an altitude of 6 meters below the ground.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
We need to determine the distance that Mr. Mole covers in a single minute.
To do that we divide the difference in values of altitude by the difference in the time periods.
For the first case, Mr. Mole had traveled -18 meters in 5 minutes.
We also have, he traveled -25.2 meters in 8 minutes.
Step 2:
The distance he covered in 1 minute
So with every minute, Mr. Mole digs down an additional 2.4 meters below the surface.
To determine where Mr. Mole's burrow is we subtract the distance traveled in 5 minutes from -18.
The altitude of Mr. Mole's burrow
So Mr. Mole's burrow was at an altitude of 6 meters below the ground i.e. -6 meters.

Hi!
<u>Explanation: </u><u><em>This question is about math, and this lesson is about order of operations. I will give you a hint. You had to used PEMDAS, P-Parenthesis should be go first, E-Exponents, M-Multiply, D-Divide, A-Add, and S-Subtract. If you use multiply, divide, add, or subtract it should go left to right. First, you had to multiply and divide should go left to right. And it gave us -15+10. And finally, you should add and subtract by left to right. And it gave us -5 is correct answer. Hope this helps! Thank you for posting your question at here on Brainly. And have a great day. -Charlie</em></u>
