Question

The airplane was 32,000 feet above sea level. It landed in a valley 100 feet below sea level. Write an integer to express the change in the altitude

Answer 1

- 32,100 ft

Explanation:

Initial Altitude = 32,000 ft above sea level = +32,000 feet

Final Altitude = 100 ft below sea level = -100 ft

Altitude change,

= final altitude - initial altitude

= - 100 - (32,000)

= - 32,100 ft
