A hiker starts at an elevation of 120 m above sea level. They descend 35 m, then climb 18 m, and finally descend 60 m. What is the hiker’s final elevation relative to sea level?
Start: +120+120+120 m. Descend 35 m → 120−35=85. Climb 18 m → 85+18=103. Descend 60 m → 103−60=43.
The hiker ends 43 m above sea level.
