standard_description: Solve real-world and mathematical problems by graphing points in all four quadrants of the coordinate plane. Include use of coordinates and absolute value to find distances between points with the same first coordinate or the same second coordinate.
problem_activity: A biologist is tracking the location of three different animals. On the first day of spring, the biologist records the following information about the three animals:
The first animal is located
$$220$$
m below sea level.
The second animal is located at an elevation of
$$0$$
m.
The third animal has an elevation of
$$−10$$
m.
a.   Draw a number line and represent each animal’s elevation on the number line.
b.   Name a possible animal that could be at each elevation.
