Weather balloon A is at an elevation of 2000 feet and descending at a rate of 12 feet per second. Weather balloon B is released from the ground and rises at a rate of 15 feet per
second. How long will it take in seconds for the balloons to be at the same elevation?

step-by-step explanation:

when a number is between two straight lines it means the absolute value.

to find absolute value you need to know how many numbers is that number away from 0.

when finding absolute value the number will always come out positive

so absolute value of -3 is 3

absolute value of 3/2 is 3/2

absolute value of -2 is 2

absolute value of 3.5 is 3.5

absolute value of -1 is 1

now put these numbers in order:

a)   |-1|, |3/2|, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|
