Tessa had $90

Question

in her checking account. She paid her cable/internet bill for $60
. She deposited $50
from her part-time job before writing a check for $65
to pay her credit card bill. What is Tessa's account balance?

Answer 1

To find Tessa's account balance after the transactions, we can follow the calculations step by step.

1. Starting balance: $90

2. Paying cable/internet bill:

   • Balance after payment: \( 90 - 60 = 30 \)

3. Depositing from part-time job:

   • Balance after deposit: \( 30 + 50 = 80 \)

4. Writing a check for credit card bill:

   • Balance after writing the check: \( 80 - 65 = 15 \)

So, Tessa's account balance is $15.
