Question

find the difference in height between the top of a hill 2089 feet high and a crack caused by an earthquake 188 feet below sea level

Answer 1

2277 feet

Explanation:

We have that the difference between both points can be calculated as follows:

`\begin{gathered} d=2089-(-188) \\ d=2089+188 \\ d=2277\text{ ft} \end{gathered}`

The height difference then is 2277 feet
