Answer 1

To analyze the scenario:

1. Bob earned $25 from yard work.
2. He owes his dad $30 for the iPad case.

Now, we can calculate Bob's net money after considering his debt:

Money after earnings:

• Bob's earnings: +$25
• Bob's debt: -$30

Calculation:

• Net amount = Earnings - Debt = $25 - $30 = -$5

This means Bob is in debt of $5 after earning $25 and owing $30.

The correct response that matches this scenario is: Rational answer: Bob still owes money in the end: -30 + 25 = -$5
