fixed expenses:
rent: $1,200.50
car payment: $350.25
variable expense:
utilities: $150.75
discretionary expenses:
dining out: $75.50
entertainment: $50.25
miscellaneous shopping: $100.75
how much does mya spend in total on all of her expenses for the month?

Explanation:

Step1: Add all the expenses

$$1200.50+350.25 + 150.75+75.50+50.25+100.75$$

Step2: Calculate the sum

First, add \(1200.50+350.25=1550.75\)
Then, \(1550.75 + 150.75=1701.5\)
Next, \(1701.5+75.50 = 1777\)
Then, \(1777+50.25=1827.25\)
Finally, \(1827.25+100.75 = 1928\)

Answer:

\(1928\)
