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 diver is at | - 380| = 380 feet distance from the sea level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the diver is at 380 feet below the sea level.

So, the diver is at | - 380| = 380 feet distance from the sea level.

Here, the absolute value function y = |x| gives the value only irrespective of its sign.

Now, in this case the distance of the diver from the sea level is required and whether it is above or below sea level is not important. (Answer)
