Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$- 16 + 2$

Think of -16 as a debt . Lets say you are owing someone $16

Think of +2 as the amount of money with you that hasn't been spent.

Now let's put the story together.

You are owing someone $16 and you pay the person $2(the only money you have on you ).

Definitely, you will still be owing the person and amount of $14

$16 - 2 = 14$

And remember - means owing

+ means you're paying or you're having

So that means you're owing $14

So the answer = -14

Answer:

B & D

Step-by-step explanation:

We use percents in decimal form to multiply it with the price. We convert percents into decimals by dividing the percent number by 100. For example, 78% divided by 100 becomes 0.78.

There are two ways to look at it:

For finding the price we pay during a sale, we focus on the percent we pay. If 22% off is the sale, then we spend 78% or 100-22=78. If 20% off is the sale, then we pay 80% or 0.80. Multiply that by x an unknown price and we have 0.8x.
We can find the percent off by multiplying the price by the percent conversion. So 20% is 0.20. Then subtract it from the original price to find the leftover that we pay. This is x-0.2x.
