Sasha hikes into a canyon. She takes a break at the rest stations every 2/3 of a mile. If she started at sea level and has hiked down to the fourth rest station, what is Sasha’s elevation now?
Select all that apply.

The correct options are;

A.

D.   below sea level

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The distance Sasha travels down before a stop = -2/3 mile

The level at which Sasha starts to hike into the canyon = Sea level

Therefore, we have;

Her elevation at the fourth rest station = 4 × -2/3 mile = -8/3 miles

Therefore, we have;

-8/3 mile = below sea level

Therefore, the correct options are;

-8/3 mile and   below sea level.

the mistake in the pattern is that :

b. the decimal point was moved one too many place values each time

the correct pattern could be made by :

b. moving the decimal point to the right the same numbers of place values as the exponents
