A diver is currently at an elevation of -380 feet. Write an absolute value statement to express the diver's distance, in feet, from sea level. Then, interpret the result within the context of the situation.

 The answer would be 380.  The absolute value would be 380 because absolute value simply measures how far a number is away from 0 on a number line and -380 is 380 spots away from 0.  In this context it would simply mean that 380 feet away from sea level, but in his case he is below the ocean, which is why it is negative.

answer: 42

use a calculator to find that 845/73 = 11.575

the whole part of the answer is 11. multiply this by 73 to get 11*73 = 803.

subtract that result from 845 to get 845 - 803 = 42
