A fish swims at an elevation of -4 feet. A seagull flies just as far above the water as the fish is swimming below. A second fish swims just as far below the water as the seagull is flying above.
What is the elevation of the second fish in feet?
Since the seagull is flying just as far above the water as the fish is swimming below, the elevation of the seagull would be 4 feet above sea level (0 feet).
Similarly, the second fish is swimming just as far below the water as the seagull is flying above. Therefore, the elevation of the second fish would be 4 feet below sea level.
Hence, the elevation of the second fish is -4 feet.
How can you recognize when two integers are opposite numbers?
Two integers are opposite numbers if they have the same absolute value but opposite signs.
In other words, if two numbers are opposite, one number will be positive and the other will be negative, but both numbers will have the same value in magnitude.
For example:
-3 and 3 are opposite numbers because they have the same absolute value (3) but opposite signs (- and +).
-10 and 10 are opposite numbers because they have the same absolute value (10) but opposite signs (- and +).
-7 and 7 are not opposite numbers because they have different absolute values.
To recognize if two integers are opposite, you can check if they have the same absolute value and opposite signs.
