Question

Write the integer that represents the opposite of the situation:

100 feet above the sea level. 

  1. 0 feet
  2. – 100 feet
  3. 200 feet
  4. 50 feet

hintHint:

Sea level is considered to be at 0 level. If you go above it would be taken as positive. If you go below, it would be negative.

The correct answer is: – 100 feet


    We are asked to find the integer that represents the opposite of ' 100 feet above the sea level.' 100 feet above the sea level means +100, since you are 100 feet above 0 (sea level.) So, the opposite is 100 feet below the see level, which would be -100.
    Thus, the correct answer is option b.
