Answer:

My best guess is -300

Step-by-step explanation:

Because she(?) moved lower while she hiking. So the number will be negative ( - ). And we can calculate the difference: 1500-1200=300

Answer:

-300.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you'd have to subtract 1500 from 1200. This gives you 300, but since she is descending rather than ascending, the number is negative rather than positive.
