Juan is walking up a hill at 13034 feet above sea level when he kicks a pebble.

If the pebble falls to the base of the hill, which is 18.5 feet below sea level, what is the vertical distance that the pebble fell? The temperature at noon at a ski resort is 3°F. The temperature drops 8°F by midnight.
What is the temperature at midnight?
