Dave received a $200.00 bonus from his employer, and decided to treat himself to some new clothes. his first purchase cost $89.99, and his second purchase cost $45.98. how much of dave’s bonus remained after his purchase? set up a subtraction problem using parentheses to show the proper order of subtraction. then, calculate the answer.

$64.03 remained with Dave after purchasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dave received a bonus from his employer and decided to purchase some new clothes.He made two purchases and their costs are given.We have to calculate Dave's bonus remained after these purchases.

This whole can be represented as

Bonus left after purchase = Total bonus - (Purchases done by Dave)

                                          = Total bonus - (Cost of purchase one + Cost of second purchase)

Now we put the values in the equation

Bonus left = 200 - (89.99 + 45.98)

                 = 200 - (135.97)

                 = $64.03

After spending money Dave was left with $64.03.

answer: yes, since the line has a steeper rate of change than the exponential the y-values will be greater and they will only intersect one time.
