Step-by-step explanation:

ANSWER:

The change in the elevation of Erin was 2000 feet.

SOLUTION:

Given that , Erin ended a hike at an elevation of 3,000 feet above the sea level.

She had started the hike at an elevation of 1,000 feet above sea level.  

We need to find what was Erin's change in elevation.

Change in elevation is nothing but the difference between the initial elevation and final elevation.

change in elevation of erin = final elevation of erin – initial elevation of erin.

Given that the final elevation is 3000 and initial elevation is 1000.Hence substituting the values in above formula we get,

Change in elevation of erin = 3000 – 1000

Change in elevation of erin = 2000 feet.

Hence, the change in the elevation of erin was 2000 feet.
