I believe the answer is c. You had 45.25 so that would be positive then, you withdrew 30 so that would be a negative

The correct representation of Justin's bank transactions as signed numbers is option C: 45.25 for the deposit and -30.00 for the withdrawal. This reflects that he made a positive deposit and a negative withdrawal. Thus, his transactions are accurately represented with these signed numbers.
