It is given that Death Valley, California has the lowest elevation in the United States. It's elevation is 282 feet below sea level.

Mount McKinley Alaska has the highest elevation in the United States. It's elevation is 20,320 feet above sea level.

We need to use integers to describe these two locations in the United States.

Both the statements are related with sea level.

Let say the sea level is at the zero, if a point is below sea level then we will indicate it by placing a negative sign in the front of the number and if it is above the sea level then we will indicate it by placing a positive sign or no sign in the front of the number.

Now consider the provided information.

Death Valley's elevation is 282 feet below sea level.

Which can be written as: -282 Feet (In integer)

Mount McKinley Alaska elevation is 20,320 feet above sea level.

Which can be written as: 20,320 Feet (In integer)
