Find the integer that would represent the change in the amount in the account if deposits ​$ into bank account once each day for days. Explain the difference between the integer for the withdrawals and the integer for the deposits.

Answer 1

a. Sam withdraws $11 from his account. That means his account balance reduces by $11 so the integer is -$11.

He does this 4 times so;

= 4 * -11

= -$44

b. He then deposits $11 once every day for 4 days.

= 4 * 11

= $44

c. The integer for withdrawals is a negative figure to show that the balance was decreasing. The Integer for deposits is positive to show that the balance was increasing.
