How much of the ladder that will be underwater is 7 ft.

Since the ladder is 10 ft long and its last two feet are submerged under water, this implies that 2 ft of the ladder are submerged under water.

When the tide rises by five feet, the part of the ladder that would be under water is 2 ft + 5ft = 7ft.

So, how much of the ladder that will be underwater is 7 ft.
