A student used the following elevations in a calculation. • Mt. Everest: 29,035 feet above sea level • Dead Sea: 1,349 feet below sea level
The student said the distance between the two elevations was 27,686 feet. Why is the student's calculation incorrect?
The student added a positive 29,035 and a positive 1,349 instead of subtracting a positive 1,349 from a positive 29,035
The student subtracted a positive 1,349 from a positive 29,035 instead of subtracting a negative 1,349 from a positive 29,035.
