Answer 1

Noa's change in height was 7.3 meters downward, and the vertical distance between his apartment and his neighbor's apartment is also 7.3 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find Noa's change in height from his apartment to his neighbor's apartment, we subtract the neighbor's apartment height from Noa's apartment height. That is, we do the following calculation:

Change in height = Height of Noa's apartment - Height of Neighbor's apartment

Change in height = 29.3 meters - 22 meters = 7.3 meters

Therefore, Noa moved 7.3 meters downward.

The vertical distance between Noa's apartment and his neighbor's apartment is simply the absolute value of the change in height, which is:

Vertical distance = |7.3 meters| = 7.3 meters
