Henry is standing on a catamaran at an elevation of 10 1010 feet relative to sea level. His friend Thomas is scuba diving at an elevation of − 12 1 2 −12 2 1 minus, 12, start fraction, 1, divided by, 2, end fraction feet relative to sea level. Which friend has greater elevation? Choose 1 Choose 1 (Choice A) A Henry (Choice B) B Thomas Which friend is farther from sea level? Choose 1 Choose 1 (Choice A) A Henry (Choice B) B Thomas

A.) Henry

B.) Thomas

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Henry's elevation = 10feets relative to sea level

Thomas elevation = -12 1/2 that is (-25/2) feet relative to sea level

Person with greater elevation:

Elevation can be described as height, in this case, the sea level used as the reference point. Therefore, a positive distance denotes an elevation above the reference point (which is the sea level). Therefore, Henry has a greater elevation of 10 feet( a distance above 0).

B) Who is farther from sea level:

This can be calculated by comparing the absolute distance between the elevation of both Henry and Thomas relative to the reference point(sea level)

Take reference point as 0

Absolute distances relative to sea level:

Henry's distance | 10 - 0 | = 10

Thomas's distance | -(25/2)- 0 | = 12 1/2

A then B
