Answer 2

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Mona is hang gliding 5/4 kilometers above sea level. Directly below her, she sees a whale 0.2 kilometers below sea level.

Distance between Mona and sea level = 5/4 km

Distance between whale and sea level = -0.2 km

"+" sign represents the distance above sea level.

"-" sign represents the distance below sea level.

$\text{Total distance}=\dfrac{5}{4}-(-0.2)$

Take modulus because distance can not be negative.

$\text{Total distance}=|\dfrac{5}{4}-(-0.2)|$

Therefore, the correct option is A.
