A parking garage has 7 levels below ground. Each level is the same height.

Consider ground level to be 0. The depth of the seventh level of the parking garage is −149.8 ft.

What is the depth of the first level of the parking garage?
(explanation needed!!!)

Respuesta :

Any height below the ground level is usually considered to be negative while any one above the ground level is usually considered to be positive.

Depth of first level of parking garage = 21.4 ft

  • We are told that the ground level is 0 ft.

  • Secondly, there are 7 floors which are all same height.

  • Since the height of the seventh floor level from the parking garage level is −149.8 ft, then height of each floor is;

149.8/7 = 21.4 ft

  • The negative sign is not included because it only depicts that it is below ground level but we are looking for actual value of height and so it has to be positive.

Height of each floor = 21.4 ft

This will also be the same depth of the first floor.
