The captain of a fishing vessel is standing on the deck at 23 feet above sea level. he holds a rope tied to his fishing net that is below him underwater at a depth of 38 feet.

draw a diagram using a number line, and then use absolute value to compare the lengths of rope in and out of the water.

The distance of the rope out of the water is 23 feet.

The distance of the rope in the water is 38 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The captain is standing on the deck at 23 feet above so the integer that represents the position of the captain is 23.

The fishing net is at a depth of 38 feet underwater so the integer that represents the position of the fishing net is -38.

The distance of the rope out of the water is given by the absolute value of 23.

|23|=23

The distance of the rope in the water is given by the absolute value of -38.

|-38|=38

The attached picture shows a diagram of the number line.

step-by-step explanation:

answer: 16

step-by-step explanation: first you would add 6+6 which equals 12 then add 2+2 which equals 4. then add 12 + 4 which is 16.

hope this ^_^
