PLEASE HELP ME (GIVING BRANLEST) A bank teller s two customers. Jerry makes a $20
withdrawal, so his balance changes by -$20. Hank makes
a $5 deposit, so his balance changes by $5.
Use absolute value to show the size of each transaction. Which transaction
involves more money?
O A. Hank’s deposit involves more money, because -20 is greater than
5.
O B. Hank’s deposit involves more money, because 1-20 is greater than
151
O C. Jerry’s withdrawal involves more money, because 1-20 is greater
than 51
O D. Jerry’s withdrawal involves more money, because 1-20 is less
than 151

Jerry's withdrawal involves more money because |-20| is greater than |5|

The vertical bars represent absolute value.

Explanation:

Absolute value is the distance a number is from 0. I recommend drawing out a number line. You should see that -20 is further from zero compared to 5.

So this is a visual representation of why Jerry is dealing with more money. You can think of the positive version of each value, which is effectively what absolute value is doing, when comparing the values.

We see that 20 > 5, so Jerry is dealing with more money even though he's losing it rather than gaining it.

the reason why your question keeps getting deleted because this is not a school related question : )

i will answer your question though.
