The vertical distance between Dan and Jeff is of 26 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Diver Dan enjoys scuba diving. He dives to 34 feet below the surface of a lake.

His position is -34 feet.

His friend Jump in Jeff dives to 40 feet below the surface, but then descends 20 feet.

Dives to 40 feet, and descends 20 more feet. So

-(40 + 20) = -60

What is the vertical distance between Dan and Jeff?

|-34 - (-60)| = |-34 + 60| = 26

The vertical distance between Dan and Jeff is of 26 feet.
