Answer:

They are 24, 692 feet aprart

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume at the instance we are measuring their position, that Pluto is at the highest point in the air, which is = 24,568 feet, and Goofy is at the lowest point of the sea (that he can go) = 124 feet.

Before we can proceed with the addition, we need to establish a datum, which will serve as the reference point from which the two distances are measured. This definitely is the sea level, because altitude and depth are usually measured above and below sea level.

Pluto's location to the sea level = 24,568 feet

Goofy's Location to the sea level = 124 feet

their distance apart = 24,568 feet + 124 feet =24, 692 feet apart
