Answer:

9,235 feet

Explanation:

⇒ Height of mountain = 29,135 feet

⇒ Point where climber is = 17,600 feet

⇒ Distance left to hike = Height of mountain - Point where climber is

= 29,135 - 17,600

= 11,535 feet

⇒ Distance climber hiked = 2,300

⇒ New distance left to hike = Distance left to hike - distance climber hiked

= 11,535 - 2,300

= 9,235 feet

Therefore, the climber has to go 9,235 feet more to reach the top of the mountain.
