Ellie Kent · Answer 2

21 or 21 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Bryce's account represents 16 dollars while Jada's represents negative (-) 5 dollars. You must subtract 16 from (-) 5 but when you subtract by a negative you have to add the opposite of the negative value. so in this case we add 5 to 16 which equals 21.
