Alyssa hiked an elevation of 1500ft After 2hrs she was at 1200ft what is the answer
To find Alyssa's change in elevation, we need to subtract her starting elevation from her final elevation.
Starting elevation = 1500 feet
Final elevation = 1200 feet
Change in elevation = Final elevation - Starting elevation
= 1200 feet - 1500 feet
Now we can subtract the numbers to find the change in elevation:
Change in elevation = 1200 feet - 1500 feet
= -300 feet
Therefore, the integer that describes her change in elevation is -300.
