Answer 1

To find out how much more Suzi can spend on this outing without going over her budget, we first calculate how much she has already spent.

Suzi spent:
- $8 on lunch
- $12 on movie tickets

Total spent so far = $8 + $12 = $20.

Next, we subtract the amount she has already spent from her total budget:

Total budget = $28

Amount left = Total budget - Total spent
Amount left = $28 - $20 = $8.

So, Suzi can spend **$8** more on this outing without going over her budget.
