The correct response is:
D. Nevaeh earned $102.50 last weekend. He then spent $39.95 on a new game. How much money from his weekend earnings does he have left?
This scenario sets up the situation where you start with an amount of money (earnings) and then subtract the amount spent, which can be represented by the calculation \( 102.50 + (-39.95) \).
