Solution

To solve this problem, we need to add the two amounts of change to the lake's water level together.

Step 1: The lake's water level starts 7 feet below the normal level.

Step 2: The drought causes the lake's water level to drop an additional 213 feet.

Step 3: To find the total change, we add these two amounts together.

7 feet (initial drop) + 213 feet (additional drop due to drought) = 220 feet

So, the lake's current water level is 220 feet below its normal level.
