A diver was 40 feet below the surface of the water. A fisherman was casting off a dock right above the diver that was 12 feet above the surface of the water. How far apart are the diver and the fisherman?
It is D because they cannot be negative feet away and if the fisherman is 12ft above water and the diver is 40ft below than 40 + 12 = 52. Hope this helps.
