Question

On Tuesday the value of a stock decreased by 12 point. On Wednesday, the value increased by 34 point. On Thursday the value decreased by 38 point. What integer represents the change in stock value after three days?

Answer 1

-16

Explanation:

The value decreased by 12 on Tuesday, increased by 34 on Wednesday, and decreased by 38 on Thursday. To find the overall change, we can add these values together:

-12 + 34 - 38 = -16

Therefore, the integer that represents the change in stock value after three days is -16. This means that the stock value decreased overall by 16 points over the course of these three days.
