Let's simplify the expression step by step:

  1. Calculate \( \frac{3}{4} \times 1440 \): \[ \frac{3}{4} \times 1440 = 3 \times 360 = 1080 \]

  2. Now, add the results together with \( 295.25 \) and \( -33.50 \): \[ 1080 + 295.25 - 33.50 \]

  3. First, add \( 1080 + 295.25 \): \[ 1080 + 295.25 = 1375.25 \]

  4. Now subtract \( 33.50 \): \[ 1375.25 - 33.50 = 1341.75 \]

Thus, the simplified expression is 1341.75.
