A withdrawal from an account means taking money out of your account. That means whatever money you have in there becomes a smaller amount because you're subtracting money from the account.
So, to work out how much money Jan withdrew as a negative sum, you just have to look at how much she took out:
-25 - 45 - 75 = -$145
This means Jan took out $145 from her account, and we write it with a negative sign because it's money that's going to be taken away from whatever's in there.
The same thing applies to Julie:
-35 - 55 - 65 = -$155
Julie took out $155 from her account, so her withdrawals were -$155.
Therefore, your final answer for 24a. is -$145 and your answer for 24b. is -$155.

Answer:
6kg pure copper and 30 kg 10% copper was mixed to give 36kg of 25% alloy
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to produce 36 kg of 25% alloy
Let the Pure copper be x kg while 10% alloy be y kg
Pure copper is simply 100% copper
Thus;
x + y = 36 •••••(i)
Then;
100% of x + 10% of y = 25% of 36
= x + 0.1y = 9 •••••• ii)
From i x = 36-y
from ii, x = 9-0.1y
Equate both x
36-y = 9-0.1y
36-9 = 0.1y + y
0.9y = 27
y = 27/0.9
y = 30
x = 36-y
x = 36-30
x = 6 kg
