Complete question :

Scottie is standing next to a lighthouse on the edge of a cliff overlooking the ocean. The cliff is 30 meters above

sea level, and the lighthouse has a height of 15 meters. There is a man fishing in a boat directly below Scottie who

has hooked a fish that is 10 meters below the surface of the water.

a. Use positive and negative numbers to represent the locations in relation to sea level.

Scottie =

Top of the lighthouse =

The boat =

The fish =

meters

b. How far is Scottie from the fish?

30 m ;

15 m ;

0 m;

40 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Scottie's position = standing on cliff

Height of cliff = 30 m above sea level

Height of lighthouse = 15 meters

Position of fish = 10m below sea level

Above sea level = positive, +

Below sea level = negative, -

Scottie's position = 30 m

Top of lighthouse = 15m

BOAT = surface of sea = 0m

Fish = - 10 m

Distance of Scottie from fish :

Scottie's position - Position of fish

30m - (-10)m

30m + 10m

= 40m
