The positions of two divers from the water’s surface after a dive are shown:
Sal: −38 feet
Sam: −45 feet
Which inequality explains why Sal is closer to the surface than Sam?
Because −38 > −45, so −38 is closer to 0 than −45
= CORRECT ANSWER
Because −38 < −45, so −38 is closer to 0 than −45 WRONG
Because −38 > −45, so −38 is farther from 0 than −45
WRONG
Because −38 < −45, so −38 is farther from 0 than −45
WRONG
