Allen's work is not written properly so I have rearranged it as shown below:
Original problem) –8.3 + 9.2 – 4.4 + 3.7.
Step 1) −8.3 + 9.2 + 4.4 + 3.7 Additive inverse
Step 2) −8.3 + 4.4 + 9.2 + 3.7 Commutative property
Step 3) −8.3 + (4.4 + 9.2 + 3.7) Associative property
Step 4) −8.3 + 17.3
We can see that in step 1), Allen changed -4.4 into +4.4 using additive inverse. Notice that we are simplifying not eliminating -4.4 as we do in solving some equation. Hence using additive inverse is the wrong step.
Alen should have collect negative numbers together and positive numbers together.
Add the respective numbers then proceed to get the answer.
–8.3 + 9.2 – 4.4 + 3.7
= –8.3 – 4.4 + 9.2 + 3.7
= -12.7 + 12.9
= 0.2
Take $15 and multiply it by 0.05 (this will get you the percent). You should get 0.75. So you add 0.75 to $15 and you should get $15.75

Answer:
C. √((5-9)² +(1+6)²)
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance formula can be written ...
d = √((x1 -x2)² +(y1 -y2)²)
Filling in the given point coordinates, this becomes ...
d = √((5 -9)² +(1 -(-6))²)
Simplifying the signs, this becomes ...
d = √((5 -9)² +(1 +6)²) . . . . . matches choice C
