Ping dove off a 10 meter platform. He reached a depth of 6 meters in the water. What was the change in height?(1 point) Responses 60 meters 60 meters 64 meters 64 meters 16 meters 16 meters 4 meters

1 answer

To find the change in height, we can subtract the depth reached in the water from the height of the platform.

The height of the platform = 10 meters
The depth reached in the water = 6 meters

Change in height = Height of the platform - Depth reached
Change in height = 10 meters - (-6 meters)
Change in height = 10 meters + 6 meters = 16 meters

Therefore, the change in height is 16 meters.
