After swimming 55 feet below the surface of the water, a
fish swims up 30 feet. Use a number line to help you create
an equation that shows the new location of the fish in
relation to the water's surface.
-80 -70 -60 -50 40 -30 -20 -10 0
10
Interpret the sum in the context of the problem.
when the fish swam down 55, you moved 55 to the left of zero. then when he swam 30 up, you take that 55 and move it 30 towards to the right. since -55 is greater than 30, your answer is still negative. -55+30=-25.
