To get back to ground level, the roller coaster would need to drop 125 feet (from the starting point), climb 135 feet, drop 60 feet, and climb another 125 feet.
Total drop = 125 feet + 60 feet = 185 feet.
Total climb = 135 feet + 125 feet = 260 feet.
So, the roller coaster needs to drop or climb a total of 185 feet + 260 feet = 445 feet.
The snake, a roller coaster, climbs, 125 feet from ground level, then drop 60 feet before climbing another 135 feet how far does the roller coaster need to drop or climb to get back at ground level
