Applications
6

Valentina dives off a platform that is 8\text{ m} above the water. She descends 14\text{ m} before returning to the surface.

a

If Valentina's initial position on the diving platform is represented by the directed number 8, find the directed number that represents her lowest position throughout the dive.

b

Hence, state the greatest depth that Valentina reaches during the dive.

7

One evening in Pickering the temperature fell to - 3 \degree \text{C}. By midday the next day, the temperature was forecast to be 15 \degree \text{C}. Find the expected rise in temperature.

8

Liquid nitrogen can be used to make ice cream. The ice cream mixture starts at 26 \degree \text{ C}, then rapidly cools to - 185 \degree \text{ C} after liquid nitrogen is added to it. State the directed number that represents this change in temperature.

9

Three contestants are heading into the final round of a game show. Eileen has 39 points and Roxanne has - 3 points. If Oprah has 14 more points than Eileen, calculate how many points separate Roxanne and Oprah.

10

A submarine is 148 \text{ m} below sea level. It rises 34 \text{ m}, then dives 47 \text{ m}. Find the distance of the submarine below sea level.

11

Each bottle of orange juice is supposed to contain 250 \text{ mL}. Nine bottles are inspected by the quality assurance department. The results of the inspection are shown in the table:

a

Find the actual volume of:

i

Bottle 1

ii

Bottle 2

iii

Bottle 6

iv

Bottle 10

b

Calculate the total volume contained in the 10 bottles.

12

Each letter has been assigned to an integer. A word must be formed using these letters and each letter can only be used once. The table shows the assignment of the integers:

The score of the word is the sum of the integers assigned to its letters. Find the score of the following words:
