Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. However, I'll solve on a general terms.

Since the robin, seagull and fish are on directly below one another; a possible question could be to calculate the distance between the robin and the clownfish

The given parameters are:


Robin = +40ft


Seagull= +13ft


Clownfish= -33ft

+ represents above sea level while i represents below

The distance is then calculated as:


Distance = Robin - Clownfish


Distance = +40ft - (-33ft)


Distance = +40ft +33ft


Distance = 73\ ft
