the approximate elevation of Death Valley is -287 feet below sea level

Step-by-step explanation:

if we are talking about the lowest elevation, it would be -7

if Death Valley is 40 times lower than the lowest elevation of Long Beach

then you subtract from -7

-7-280=-287

the approximate elevation of Death Valley is -287 feet below sea level
