Answer:

56

Explanation:

The submarine climbed 9m, so its depth is now 40m + 9m = 49m.

Then, it dove 14m, so its depth is now 49m - 14m = 35m.

Finally, it climbed 21m, so its depth is now 35m + 21m = 56m.

Therefore, the integer that represents the depth of the submarine after these changes is 56.

If the submarine is 24m below the sea then a integer is -24
