Answer: -15 meters


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The Tunnel of Fear ride climbs straight up to its peak above the ground = 50 meters or +50 meters

Then, it drops into an underground tunnel  = 65 meters or -65 meters

Thus, the elevation of the tunnel relative to the ground= +50-65=-15 meters

Hence, the elevation of the tunnel relative to the ground= -15 meters.
