Answer 1

For the first problem, your answer is D, 16, because -5+8=3, and 3+ |-13|=16, because the absolute value of -13=13
for the 2nd, B is the correct answer. -4.37 is smaller than -1.63,
the 3rd one is C, 19. -14+19=5,
the 4th one the answer is D, -20.1 because 12.7+ -20.1=-7.4
1=D
2=B
3=C
4=D
