Almost done

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

@mathmate

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

@jhonyy9 Do you know how to do this? I guess Mathmate is done for the day or helping someone else at the moment.

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

ok. but i dont understand it why not is your answer the last one choice ?

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

How did you get that answer?

OpenStudy (mathmate):

@jhonyy9 hint: Grocery is bi-weekly.

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

I'm only confused about whether the khakis are a fixed expense.

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

It says they're for work, but they are brand name, which is a "luxury."

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

@dinorap1 you just need assuming these amount and will get the right answer - ok. ?

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Sometimes work clothes get worn out in a month and need to be changed. Most of the time employers pay for that, but if he works for himself, he needs to replace regularly. It says monthly, so trust it and put it as a monthly expense.

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

Hmm...

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

1748.93 isn't an answer choice though.

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

how you get these to much 17--,-- check please these are to much

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

?

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

Why do you type like that?

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

@mathmate You still there?

OpenStudy (mathmate):

Yes, there is a slight difference, but I do not know if it's a mistake of the answer. Personally I would use 13/4 for the number of weeks per month (makes 52 weeks in a year), but that makes the amount even higher. You may have to check with your teacher on that. I think the answer is off (unless the question has a typo).

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

Maybe she will notice the typo and fix it, giving credit regardless of answer.

OpenStudy (mathmate):

yep!
