Answer:

The required equation is x+295=285 , where x= starting altitude( in feet).

The starting altitude is -11 feet.

Let x be the starting altitude( in feet) .

Given: The Hiking Club is taking another trip. The hike leader's watch shows that they gained 296 feet in altitude from their starting position.

Then, the altitude is now = x+ 296

Since their altitude is now 285 feet.

So the required equation is x+296=285

Subtract 296 from both sides, we get

x= -11

12 2/12

or 12 1/6 ( simplified fraction)

Step-by-step explanation:

first add the whole numbers together :7+5-4+3=12-1=11 ( same denominator 12)

1/12 +7/12 -5/12 +11/12 = 14/12  ( improper fraction)

= 1 2/12 mixed fraction

11 + 1 2/12=12 2/12 or 12 1/6 ( simplified fraction)
