Answer:

B 53/20

Explanation:

| -4/5-1/10| + |-3/4 +5/2|

We need to get common denominators. The first absolute value has a common denominator of 10

| -4/5-1/10|

| -4/5*2/2 -1/10|

|-8/10 -1/10|

|-9/10|

Absolute value means take the positive value

9/10


We need to get common denominators. The second absolute value has a common denominator of 4

| -3/4 +5/2|

|-3/4 +5/2*2/2|

|-3/4 +10/4|

|7/4|

Absolute value means take the positive value

7/4

9/10 + 7/4

We need to get a common denomintor, that would be 20

9/10*2/2 + 7/4*5/5

18/20 + 35/20

53/20
