Stefano accidentally dropped his sunglasses off the edge of a canyon as he was looking down. The height, h (t), in meters (as it relates to sea level), of the sunglasses after t seconds, is shown in the table.

A 2-column table with 8 rows titled Height of Sunglasses Over Time. The first column is labeled t with entries 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. The second column is labeled h (t) with entries 10, 5.1, negative 9.6, negative 34.1, negative 68.4, negative 112.5, negative 166.4, negative 230.1.

    Stefano is at + 10 elevation while the hiker is at - 166.4 elevation. The difference would be 10 - (-166.4) = 10 + 166.4 = 176.4 or approximately 176 meters
