Question

You have fallen down a slippery well 10 feet deep. every hour you are able to climb 2 feet out of the well, but then slip down 1 foot. how many hours total will it take for you to climb out of the well? *

Answer 1

If every over you climb 2 feet out, but then slip down 1, that means you technically only go up the well 1 ft/per hour. Then, if its 10 ft deep, then it would take you 10 hours.
