Question

Ainsley made a $75 deposit to her savings account.what integer represents the deposit?

Answer 1

The integer that represents her deposit would be positive 75 (aka just 75)

The integer that describes the opposite of her transaction (a withdraw) would be -75

The opposite of her transaction would also be -75

Hope this helps

Answer 2

In this case, Ainsley is adding money to her savings, so the $75 deposit could be represented as the positive integer 75.

The opposite, of course, would be if Ainsley withdrew that money from her savings. In that case, we'd be subtracting money from the account, so we could use the negative integer -75 to represent that scenario.
