Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have a number (let's call it x) and it was multiplied by 8 and added by 2. Therefore:

8x+2

And we are told that the sum is equal to the product of 2 and 25 (or 50). Thus:

8x+2=50

To find the number, we just need to find x. Thus, subtract 2 from both sides:

8x=48

Divide both sides by 8:

x=6

And we're done!

So, our original number was 6.

then he went 16.5 ft further down, so that's negative also.
he then rose 12.45 ft, so that's positive.
so the expression is: -25.65+-16.5+12.45, the answer is 23.7
