Sarah gets 10 dollars for her allowance and then spends 10 dollars at the movies.

The situation that illustrates two quantities that combine to make 0 is:

Sarah gets 10 dollars for her allowance and then spends 10 dollars at the movies.

In this case, Sarah's allowance (+10) and her spending (-10) result in a net total of 0.

is that correct

Yes, that is correct. In the scenario of Sarah getting $10 and then spending $10, the two quantities indeed combine to make 0. Her net balance after receiving her allowance and spending it is:

\[ 10 - 10 = 0 \]

This illustrates a situation where two quantities (the money received and the money spent) combine to total zero.

To find the distance between -67 and 14 on a number line, you can use the formula for distance between two points, which is given by:

\[ \text{Distance} = |x_2 - x_1| \]

Here, \(x_1 = -67\) and \(x_2 = 14\). Plugging in the values:

\[ \text{Distance} = |14 - (-67)| = |14 + 67| = |81| = 81 \]

So, the distance between -67 and 14 is 81.

is that correct n are you sure

Yes, that is correct. The distance between -67 and 14 on a number line is indeed 81.

To clarify the calculation:

  1. Identify the two points: -67 and 14.
  2. Use the distance formula: \[ \text{Distance} = |x_2 - x_1| = |14 - (-67)| = |14 + 67| = |81| = 81. \]

The absolute value ensures that the distance is a positive value, regardless of the order of subtraction. Thus, the correct answer is 81.

To determine how much Madison has in her account after the transactions, we can calculate step by step:

  1. Start with the initial amount: \[ 650 \]

  2. Withdraw $350: \[ 650 - 350 = 300 \]

  3. Deposit $100: \[ 300 + 100 = 400 \]

  4. Charge a $20 fee: \[ 400 - 20 = 380 \]

So, after all the transactions, Madison has $380 in her account.

are you sure

Yes, the calculations are correct. Let's go through the transactions step by step again to ensure clarity:

  1. Starting Amount: $650
  2. Withdraw $350: \[ 650 - 350 = 300 \]
  3. Deposit $100: \[ 300 + 100 = 400 \]
  4. Charge a $20 Fee: \[ 400 - 20 = 380 \]

After performing all the calculations, Madison has $380 in her account.
