Answer 1

Answer:

-$180

Step-by-step explanation:

Mike withdrew $60 from his bank account 3 times.

The bank record withdrawals as negative numbers

a) write the setup (the expression)

= -$60x

Where x = number of times Mike withdrew

b) answer as an integer

-$60 * 3

= -$180

c) answer in a sentence

$60 * 3

= -$180

= Negative $180 or minus $180
