Question 16
Given that two golfers completed one round of golf.
It is stated that the first golfer had a score of +6 and the second golfer had a score of -3.
- Let suppose 'x' be the number of shots the first golfer took.
It is clear that the first golfer is 6 over par, while the second golfer is under 3.

Question 17
When we talk about credit, it means:
Credit = +
When we talk about debt, it means:
