Question

Hey scuba diver rose 600 feet to the surface of the water. The integer that represents the drivers position in feet with respect in the water surface before rising is?

Answer 1

-600 ft

The surface of the water is zero, therefore, going 600 below, is -600 ft.

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Hello!

The surface of the water represents 0 feet from sea level. Being up in the sky or on land above the water would be a positive integer, and being under the water would be a negative integer.

Therefore, our answer is -600 feet.

I hope this helps!
