Answer:

The cave is at a depth of 25 meters away from the surface of the water

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the location of the cave relative to the surface of the water.

Initially she was at a height of -15 meters relative to the surface of the water. What this simply means is that she was at a depth of 15 meters relative to the water surface.

Now, from that position, she went 10 meters deeper. So her new depth will be -15+(-10) which will be -25 meters

Thus the location of the cave is 25 meters away from the surface of the water
