On Monday, Elsbeth’s bank account balance was -$16.75. On Tuesday, she deposited a check for $5.72. On Thursday, she deposited $16.75. What is her new balance?

-16.75 + (5.72 + 16.75)

Use the commutative property to get:

-16.75 + (16.75 + 5.72)

Use the associative property to get:

(-16.75 + 16.75) + 5.72

On Friday, Elsbeth deposited her pay check for $872.56. What was the account’s final total?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$5.72

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to do this is take the two deposits and add them together then combine with the original balance.

Add 5.72 and 16.75

5.72+16.75=22.47

Then subtract -16.75 from 22.47

22.47-16.75=5.72

The answer is 22.47
