A field engineer has measured the distance between column lines with a tape, which is later discovered to be too short. In order to determine the actual distance between

points, how should be the correction be applied? $($State positive correction or negative correction$)$

What is the distance between two building control points measured to be $75$ m if the $30$ m tape was found to be too long by $0\mathrm{.}015$ m $?$

A $100$ ft steel tape is used in a survey. A distance of $147\mathrm{.}44$ ft was recorded. The tape was too short by $0\mathrm{.}07$ ft $.$ Find the correct length.

A $100$ ft steel tape is used in a survey. A distance of $147\mathrm{.}44$ ft was recorded. If the field temperature is $43$ F $,$ find the corrected distance.
