The entrance to a mine is 1,890 feet above sea level. The bottom of a mine is 3,642 feet below the entrance. What is the elevation at the bottom of the mine?
- 1,752 feet above sea level
- 5,532 feet above sea level
- 1,752 feet below sea level
- 5,532 feet below sea level
Correct Answer

A. 1,752 feet below sea level

Explanation

The elevation at the bottom of the mine is 1,752 feet below sea level because the entrance to the mine is 1,890 feet above sea level and the bottom of the mine is 3,642 feet below the entrance. By subtracting the depth below the entrance from the entrance's elevation, we can determine the elevation at the bottom of the mine.
