Answer:

17 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Carl dives in and touches the bottom of the pool, 15 feet below the surface of the water.

The elevation of Carl's hand would be -15\text{ ft}.

Cameron is standing on a diving platform 2 feet above the surface. The elevation of Cameron's feet would be 2\text{ ft}.

The vertical distance between Carl's hand and Cameron's feet would be difference of both altitudes.

\text{The vertical distance}=2\text{ ft}-(-15)\text{ ft}

\text{The vertical distance}=2\text{ ft}+15\text{ ft}

\text{The vertical distance}=17\text{ ft}

Therefore, the vertical distance between Carl's hand and Cameron's feet is 17 ft.

The difference between the 2 is simply the sum of the difference between each and the surface of the water (15 + 2)

17 feet apart
