Respuesta :

Answer:

Option (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

Heights above the sea level are denoted with positive notations and depths below the sea level with negative.

Height of the highest peak of the mountain = +2228 meters

Lowest point of the lake = -15 meters

Difference between these elevations = 2228 - (-15)

                                                              = 2243 meters

Therefore, Option (A) will be the correct option.
