Question

Eva sees a dolphin 3.23.23, point, 2 meters below sea level and a bird \dfrac{47}{10} 10 47 ​ start fraction, 47, divided by, 10, end fraction meters above sea level. Which of the expressions represents the vertical distance between the dolphin and the bird?

Answer 1

Answer:

47/10 - 3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Dolphin = 3.2

Bird = 47/10

Required

What is the vertical distance between both

Using a vertical scale;

Represent the bird "above sea level" position with positive and dolphin at "below sea level" position with negative.

The vertical distance between them is as follows;

Distance = +[Above The Sea] - [Below The Sea]

Distance = +47/10 - 3.2

Distance = 47/10 - 3.2

Hence, the vertical distance between both is 47/10 - 3.2

Answer 2

Answer:

|47/10 - 3.2|
