Given :

A mountain climber started his climb at 50 feet above see level .

He then raised 3 feet to rest in his cot to make his final 10 feet climb down.

To Find :

An expression to find his position relative to his final position.

Solution :

Let , final position is h .

h is given by :

[tex]h=\text{(Initial position)-(initial descended)+(height raised to rest)-(final descended)}\\\\h=50 -28 +3-10\ feet\\\\h=15\ feet[/tex]

So , his final position is 15 feet .

Hence , this is the required solution .
