Suppose Marisol has $800 in her savings account. She withdraws A dollars from her account. Deciding that this is not enough, she makes another withdrawal of B dollars. The amount of money left in her savings account now equals zero. What integers represent the withdrawals from her account?

Answer 1

The total amount of money withdrawn is equal to the amount she had in her savings account:

A + B = $800

The amount left in her savings account is zero, which means that the total amount withdrawn is equal to the original balance:

A + B = $800

Therefore, the integers representing the withdrawals from her account are $400 and $400.

Answer 3

Let's use the information provided in the question:

1. Marisol has $800 in her savings account.
2. She withdraws A dollars from her account.
3. She then makes another withdrawal of B dollars.
4. The amount left in her savings account now equals zero.

Based on this, we can write the equation:

$800 - A - B = $0

Simplifying this equation, we get:

A + B = $800

This equation represents the total amount withdrawn from Marisol's account. The integers that represent the withdrawals from her account are A = -200 and B = -600. So, the correct answer is:

-200 and -600
