A mountain climber ascends a mountain to its peak. The peak is 14,020 ft above sea level. The climber then descends 260 ft to meet a fellow climber. Find the climber’s elevation above sea level after meeting the other climber.

Respuesta :

13,760 ft above sea level. (14020-260=13760)

Answer:

13760 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a mountain climber ascends a mountain to its peak.

The peak is at  above the sea level=14029 ft

The climber descends to meet a fellow climber=260 ft

We have to find the climber's elevation above sea level after meeting the other climber

The climber's elevation above the sea level after meeting the other climber=14020-260=13760 ft

Hence, the climber's elevation above sea level after meeting the other climber=13760 ft
