As it's originally presented, there are too many 'unknowns' and assumptions for a definite answer. In a 'best case' situation, the SWR seen at the transmitter end would be dealing primarily with the losses in the feed line. In a 'worst case' situation, the resulting SWR measured in the same place is the result of both feed line losses and impedance mismatches. That opens the door to an almost infinite range of possibilities. (No, it isn't really an 'infinite range', but it is quite 'broad'.)
