=(10)3-3(-8)
=30-(-24) *2 negatives = a positive
=30+24
=54
check the picture below.
notice, a function that is decreasing, namely have a negative slope, doesn't have to be negative.
The averages for each category can be calculated by taking the sum of the values and dividing by the number of values .
