10. The city's elevation is 23.5 feet below sea level. Between which two integers is this elevation?

A. 23 and 24
B. -23 and -24
C. 0 and -23
D. -24 and -25



Answer :

Sure, let's solve this step-by-step.

The city's elevation is 23.5 feet below sea level. This means the elevation is negative since it is below sea level.

1. So, we can represent the elevation as -23.5 feet.

2. We need to identify the two integers between which -23.5 lies.

- When we look at the number line, -23.5 is positioned between -24 and -23.

Because -23.5 is greater than -24 but less than -23, it logically falls between these two integers.

Therefore, the correct answer is:
B. -23 and -24
