Question

At the top of a roller coaster hill you are 210 feet above ground. At the bottom of the hill you are 15 feet above ground. Write an integer that represents the change in height from the top to the bottom

Answer 1

An integer is just a whole number.

The change in height from the top to the bottom is just the distance between the top and bottom.

To get the distance between two points, you subtract their positions from each other. The position of the top is at 210 feet. The position of the bottom is at 15 feet.

So, the distance between them is 210 - 15 = 195 feet.
