Seem so to me.

Answer 2

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

Yes, your answers are correct. When representing a debt or a negative value, we use a negative sign (-) in front of the number. So, for owing someone $20, the integer representation would be -20. Conversely, when someone owes you money or you have a positive value, we simply write the number without a negative sign. Therefore, for someone owing you $50, the integer representation would be 50. Well done!
