Stretch 2The deepest point in the ocean is the MarianasTrench in the Pacific Ocean at about 6.9 milesbelow sea level. The highest point in the world isMount Everest in the Himalayan Mountains atabout 5.5 miles. Plot each elevation as anrational number on a number line, and useabsolute value to determine the number of milesbetween the deepest point in the ocean and thehighest point in the world.50 points

Answer:12.4 milesStep-by-step explanation:The absolute value is the distance of a number from 0 regardless of which direction from 0 the number is located. The absolute value of a real number is  always the non-negative value of the real number even if the real number in question is negative.In this scenario, we are being asked to find and add the absolute values of -6.9 and 5.5.| -6.9 | + | 5.5 | =| -6.9 | = 6.9    *Do not forget that absolute values are never negative even when you are finding the absolute value of a negative number.| 5.5 | = 5.56.9 + 5.5 = 12.4 miles~Hope this helps!~
