The top of a mountain is 2,450 feet above sea level a shipwreck was discover 310 feet below sea level what is the distance between the mountain top and the ship wreck

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the height of the top of a mountain above sea level

y ----> the deep of a shipwreck below the sea level

we know that

The sea level represent the height equal to zero

In this problem we have

---> is positive because is above sea level

---> is negative because is below sea level

To find out the distance between the mountain top and the ship wreck, determine the absolute value of the difference between the two values

substitute the values

1/3

step-by-step explanation:

to find this, you can divide 12 by 4 which is 3 or you can multiply 4 until you reach 12 (4x3=12). both should give you 3, meaning theres three times less bananas than there are oranges.
