Based on the map given, the following are true:
- Each hiker began at 180 feet.
- The hiker with the easiest path was Hiker C.
- The total change in elevation was 84 meters.
What does the map show?
Hikers A, B, and C all started at the contour line denoting 180 feet so they all started at a height of 180 feet.
Hiker C had the easiest path up the hill because the spacing of the contour lines shows that their path was not as steep as the paths taken by Hikers A and B.
The change in elevation for Hiker A is:
= Height of mountain - Original height
= 264 - 180
= 84 meters
