Answer 1

Answer:

A. 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

A. 37.

Step-by-step explanation:

In B, that is making a withdrawal.

In C, because of the *||*s around it, this means that the number inside of those lines will always be positive. But the negative is outside of the lines so it is still negative.

In D, you might think that the |-37| cancels out the - on the outside. But like I said, those lines mean that anything inside of the lines will always be positive. Meaning that the |-37| inside just becomes |37| and still turns negative because of the - on the outside.

Hope this helped, the detailed explanation took a minute! :D
