Respuesta :

Given:

Elevation of Vander's home = -108 feet

Elevation of Gali's home is ⅔ of that depth below sea level.

Thus, the elevation of Gali's home is:

⅔ of -108 feet =

[tex]\frac{2}{3}(-108)\text{ = }\frac{2(-108)}{3}=\frac{-216}{3}=\text{ -72 f}eet[/tex]

We know that the elevation of Vander's home is already below sea level since it's a negative value.

Therefore, since the elevation of Gali's home is ⅔ of the depth of Vander's home below sea level, the elevation of Gali's home is:

-72 feet

ANSWER:

-72 feet
