jose flies a kite 17 1/2 ft above the ground. he increases its elevation by 4 3/4 ft by letting out some string. then he reels in the string and changes its elevation by -15.8 ft. after jose reels in the string, what is the kite's elevation relative to the ground? show your work

6.45 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

He starts 17 and 1/2 feet off the ground

Elevation relative to ground: 17 1/2

Then he increases the height by 4 and 3/4

Expression: 17 1/2 +4 3/4

Elevation relative to ground: 22 1/4

Next he decreases the elevation by 15.8 feet

Expression: 22.25-15.8

Elevation relative to ground: 6.45

The answer 6.45 feet from the ground
