Also, graph an integer to represent both situations. A. A hiker is 𝟏𝟓 feet above sea level. 𝟏𝟓 B. A diver is 𝟐𝟎 feet below sea level. 

When the water level changes, the altimeter measures sea level.

In the picture below I graphed 15 feet above sea level and 20 feet below sea level.

I think this is the easiest since both of the integers im looking for are multiples of 5.
