Ok but yours is wrong

Answer 8

Let me correct it

function main() {
var depth = parseInt(readLine(), 10);
//your code goes here

var days = 0, i = 0;
while (true) {
days++;
i += 5;
if (i >= depth) break;
i += 2;
}
console.log(days);
}

Answer 9

Still wrong

Answer 10

You didn't subtracted the 2 feet each day,
On the last day you ought to add 2 cause it won't slip back

for(var len = 0; len < depth -2;){
len += 7 -2;
day++;
}

//your code goes here
