There are three rest stops along the trail.*The elevation of the first rest stop is -10 feet.*The elevation of the second rest stop is -15 feet.*The elevation of the third rest stop is 12 feet. Jack compares the elevations, in feet, of the first two rest stops by writing the inequality -10<-15. Jack states that the inequality he wrote is correct because 10 is less then 15. Explain whether the inequality jack writes is correct or incorrect. In your explanation,include a description of each value in the inequality in terms of what it represents
