Select the correct answer. The table shows the altitudes of four different cities. What is the correct way to arrange the altitudes in decreasing order? City Altitude (feet) Snowvale 13 Highbridge 58 Westsilver -51 Springmoor -35 A. 58, 13, -35, -51 B. -51, -35, 13, 58 C. -35, -51, 13, 58 D. 58, 13, -51, -35

Respuesta :

Answer:

58>13>-35>-51, so A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Altitude of Snowvale: 13

Altitude of Highbridge: 58

Altitude of Westsilver: -51

Altitude of Springmoor: -35

Decreasing order means from greatest to least.

Obviously, positive numbers are greater than negative numbers, so we put the positive numbers first. 58>13>-35>-51.

(Note that with negatives, a greater number is a number closer to zero!)

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitudes have to be arranged in decreasing order.

58 > 13 > -35 > -51
