The situation that describes opposite quantities that when combined would equal 0 is:
**A. A diver was 30 feet below the surface and swam upward 30 feet. What is the change of elevation?**
In this case, the diver starts at -30 feet (below the surface) and swims up +30 feet (to the surface), which results in a change of 0 feet (−30 + 30 = 0).
**A. A diver was 30 feet below the surface and swam upward 30 feet. What is the change of elevation?**
In this case, the diver starts at -30 feet (below the surface) and swims up +30 feet (to the surface), which results in a change of 0 feet (−30 + 30 = 0).
