The word in the problem that indicates that a negative sign should be used is "descend"
<h3>
</h3><h3>How many meters did he descend?</h3>
We know that he stops for water breaks four times, and between each water break, he descends 15 meters.
The written equation is:
4*(-15)m = -60m
Why the negative sign is used?
The negative sign is used because the hiker is descending, so its height is decreasing. The word in the problem that indicates that a negative sign should be used is "descend"

Based on the equation given, it can be deduced that the value of the number will be 36.
Let the number be represented by x
Therefore, seven less than one-fourth of a number will be:
=(1/4 × x) - 7
= 0.25x - 7
Now, seven less than one-fourth of a number is 2 will be written as:
0.25x - 7 = 2
0.25x = 2 + 7
0.25x = 9
x = 9/0.25
x = 36
