Answer:

200 m

-15 m

215 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Top of hill = 200 m above sea level ; height of hill top is positive 200m = 200 m

Bottom of lagoon = 15m *below sea level ; bottom of lagoon = - 15m

We have related the height of the two points with respect to sea level ; points above sea level are represented as positive ; points below are represented as negative.

Difference between the two heights :

Hill top - bottom of lagoon :

200 m - (-15) m

200 m + 15 m

215 m

Difference between the heights is 215 m
