A kid at the pool goes to jump from the high diving board. He climbs the stairs 3 feet, but he has to wait for the kid in front of him to go. He climbs up another 5 feet to the diving board, then jumps into the pool, descending 10 feet below the diving board. How far does the kid need to swim up to reach the surface of the water?

Answer:

Probably 5 feet

Explanation:

Since the diving board is 5 feet then it is 10 feet the it equals 5 feet if you half it

Sorry if wrong and hope this helps
