(−15)+(−15)=0
left parenthesis negative 15 right parenthesis plus left parenthesis negative 15 right parenthesis equals 0

(−15)+15=0
left parenthesis negative 15 right parenthesis plus 15 equals 0

(−15)+(−15)=−30
left parenthesis negative 15 right parenthesis plus left parenthesis negative 15 right parenthesis equals negative 30

(−15)+15=30

Answer 1

The correct expression that shows the situation is:

\((-15) + 15 = 0\)

This indicates that the diver starts at a depth of -15 feet (15 feet below sea level) and swims up 15 feet to reach the surface (which is at 0 feet). Therefore, the sum is 0, representing the surface level.
