Answer:

The number describing its location of Melissa to the sea-level is= 27

The number which would be the position of Brian to the sea-level is = -21

Explanation:

The number may be negative, positive, or zero.

Let the sea level be 0.

They realize that the location of Melissa is 27 meters and above the sea-level, per the relevant information given throughout the exercise.

It also may assume that it's numerical representing its position becomes greater than zero throughout terms of sea-level (this means that it is positive).

It would then be= 27

The place of Brian is 21 m away from the sea.

The integer of its location is less than zero (negative), as regards the amount of the sea.

It is, therefore= -21
