Answer :

To determine Sarah's new balance after she transferred \[tex]$450.00 from her savings account to her checking account, we'll follow these steps: 1. Identify the current balance: According to the check register, the most recent balance before making the transfer was \$[/tex]250.05 after deducting the grocery expense.

2. Add the transferred amount:
Sarah transferred \[tex]$450.00, which will be added to her current balance. New Balance = Current Balance + Transferred Amount New Balance = \$[/tex]250.05 + \[tex]$450.00 3. Compute the new balance: By adding the current balance and the transferred amount, the new balance will be: New Balance = \$[/tex]700.05

Therefore, after transferring \[tex]$450.00 from her savings account to her checking account, Sarah's new balance in her checking account is \$[/tex]700.05.
