The situation that describes opposite quantities that, when combined, would equal 0 is:

A diver was 30 feet below the surface and swam upward 30 feet. What is the change of elevation?

In this scenario, the diver's movement upward cancels out the initial position of being below the surface, resulting in a net change of 0.
