Well, in the first one, 2 degrees below zero is -2 degrees, and then it says that it dropped 14 degrees, which means it dropped -14 degrees, so to know the total amount it dropped you would just have to add -2 plus -14 which is -16 degrees, so your answer for the first question would be the last answer, -16 degrees.
For the second question, just know that whenever a negative number is BY ITSELF in parentheses, that means it is used like a positive number in the equation. So (-12) automatically becomes 12. Now, since the problem is asking for a SUM, (the answer to an ADDITION problem; when you add instead of subtract), you would turn that minus symbol to a plus symbol, and add normally to get your final answer; 30 + 12 = 42. To check if this is correct, just type in <span>30 – (–12) to a calculator and you'll get the same answer! :D
Hope this helps! :3</span>

Answer:
<em>SOLUTION: Over the last three evenings, Heather received a total of 109 phone calls at the call center. The third evening, she received 4 times as many calls as the second evening</em>
Answer:
60$ (b)
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that 20% of the total is peters - and peter has 12 dollars. We know that 20% 5 times gets us to 100%. So we multiply 12 by 5 to get a total answer of 60$
A = 1/2h(b1 + b2)
2A = h(b1 + b2)
2A/h = b1 + b2
b1 = 2A/h - b2
