Question

Joan represents the height at which a sea gull is flying at +4 feet and the depth at which a fish is swimming at −3 feet on a number line, where 0 represents the surface of the water. Which of these explains whether the sea gull or the fish is closer to the surface of the water?

Answer 1

The fish is closer to the surface of the water because |+4| = 4 and |−3| = 3, and 3 < 4.
The fish is closer to the surface of the water because |+4| = 4 and − |−3| = −3, and −3 < 4.
The sea gull is closer to the surface of the water because |+4| = −4 and |−3| = −3, and −3 > −4.
The sea gull is closer to the surface of the water because |+4| = 4 and − |−3| = 3, and 4 > 3.
