Final answer:
To find the depth a diver descends in 30 minutes, multiply the depth descended in 10 minutes by the number of intervals. In this case, the diver descends 15 meters after 30 minutes.
Explanation:
In this problem:
- Depth descended per 10 minutes = 5 meters
To calculate the depth descended after half an hour (30 minutes), you need to determine how many 10-minute intervals are in 30 minutes and then multiply that by the depth descended in 10 minutes.
After 30 minutes, the diver would have descended 15 meters.
