Achecking account is overdrawn if it has a negative balance. marcs account is overdrawn by $45. what will the balance be after he deposits $170 and writes a check for $59

The balance after the deposit and the writing of the check is $66.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to solve this problem we have to analyze the information given:

Overdrawn means a negative balance: -$45

The writing of a check is also counted as negative for the balance because is subtracted for the balance: -$59

The deposit is counted is positive for the balance, because we add money: $170

So, first we add the deposit to the balance :

-$45 +$170 =$125

And now, we subtract the value of the check:

$125 - $59 = $66

The balance after the deposit and the writing of the check is $66.
