Answer:

-29.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming sea level is at 0, you would first subtract 25.65 from 0 to indicate diving 25.65 feet BELOW 0. Then, you subtract 16.5 from that. Then, add 12.45 to that number to get the answer after the diver rose 12.45 feet.

0-25.65= -25.65

-25.65-16.5= -42.15

-42.15+ 12.45= -29.7

OR 29.7 feet below sea level.
