Chandler is on a hike in the woods. He has an altimeter with him, and Chandler uses it to measure his height above sea level at various points in his hike. He starts out at 120.4 meters above sea level, then hikes up an additional 850.0 meters to the crest of a hill. Chandler takes a break, then hikes down into a valley that is 430.7 meters below the crest. How far above sea level, in meters, is Chandler when he is in the valley?

539.7 meters above sea level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay in order to solve this problem we can take it one step at a time. First, he starts at an altitude of 120.4 meters above sea level.

Then he hikes up an additional (meaning we add) 850.0 meters.

120.4 + 850.0 = 970.4

Next, Chandler hikes down (meaning we subtract) 430.7 meters.

970.4 - 430.7 = 539.7

Therefore, we can see that when Chandler is in the valley he is at an altitude of 539.7 meters above sea level.
