-$5.00
-$18.00
-$45.00

-$45.00
no way
You are correct, my previous response was incorrect. I apologize for the mistake.
After overdrawing her checking account 3 days in a row and taking out $15 each day, Lynn would have a total overdraft of $45. Therefore, the correct answer is:
-$45.00.
To find the amount currently in Lynn's account, we need to calculate the total amount she spent when her account was overdrawn.
Lynn overdrawn her account for 3 days, taking out $15 each day. So the total amount she spent while her account was overdrawn is 3 * $15 = $45.
Since she spent more than she had, we can conclude that the amount currently in her account would be a negative value representing the amount she owes to the bank.
Therefore, the correct answer is -$45.00.
