Question

Mary has $600 in her savings account. She withdrew $120 from an ATM and she used her debit card to buy a present for her mom that cost $50. Which integer represents the change to Mary’s account balance that is shown on her statement when she made the withdrawal from the ATM?

a) $ 430
b) - $ 170
c) - $50
d) - $120

Answer 1

D) -$120 because she is taking away $120 from her account. the integer would not be a positive

Answer 2

Answer: D

Explanation:

Just showing what she did to the account at the ATM withdrawal, she took out $120. It wouldn't show the 50 from using her debit at the time of using the ATM, and she's removing money from the account so it'd be D.
