Answer 1

To determine how much more Suzy can spend on arts and crafts supplies without having a negative balance, we first need to calculate how much she has already spent.

1. Calculate the total amount spent so far:

   • Specialty paper: $12
   • Felt: $8
   • Total spent: \( 12 + 8 = 20 \)

2. Subtract the amount spent from her budget:

   • Total budget: $40
   • Amount left to spend: \( 40 - 20 = 20 \)

So, Suzy can spend an additional $20 this month on arts and crafts supplies without having a negative balance.

The correct answer is d. 20.
