anna is 26 feet high on a rock climbing wall. she descends to the 15 foot mark, rests, and then climbs down until she reaches her friend, who is 8 feet from the ground. how many feet has anna descended?
Answer provided by our tutors
26 - 8 = 18
assuming the bottom of the rock climbing wall is at ground level, she has descended a total of 18 feet from the top to her friend
(from the 15 ft mark she has descended a total of 7 ft)
