The positions of two divers from the water's surface after a dive are shown: Yong: −15 feet
Maurine: − 12 feet

Which inequality explains why Maurine is closer to the surface than Yong? (5 points)

Question 9 options:

1)

Because −12 < −15, so −12 is closer to 0 than −15

2)

Because −12 > −15, so −12 is closer to 0 than −15

3)

Because −12 < −15, so −12 is farther from 0 than −15

4)

Because −12 > −15, so −12 is farther from 0 than −15

step-by-step explanation:

distance formula is d=√(x2-x1)^2   +   (y2-y1)^2

after simplifying it i got: -36.25 as my answer. hope that !
