Answer 1

Answer:

-80 ; 2 ; - 15 ; - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A withdrawal of $80, will cause reduction in the initial value, hence, negative

= - 80

2.)

A 2 - inch rise in water level, indicates increase from initial level, hence, positive

= + 2

3.)

A lose of 15 pounds indicates reduction in weight, hence, negative

= - 15
