Question

death valey CA is 282 feet below sea levle. black mountain, KYis 750 feet above sea levle how many feet is black mountain from death valey

Answer 1

Answer:

$Distance = 1032\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$CA = 282\ ft$ below sea level

$KY = 750\ ft$ above sea level

Required

Determine the distance between them

The distance between them is calculated as thus:

$Distance = KY - CA$

Because CA is below sea level, it's value will be negated;

So, we have:

$Distance = 750\ ft - (-282\ ft)$

$Distance = 750\ ft + 282\ ft$

$Distance = 1032\ ft$

Hence, the distance between them is 1032 feet
