Answer:

C. -12 feet per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is really just asking for the slope of this situation. So the best way to find the answer is to find the change in y over the change in x. In this case, y is the depth and x is the time. So, it would be -48/4 because the diver went down 48 feet when 4 minutes passed. Then, simply divide, -48/4, which equals -12 feet/1 minute.
