Natalie is balancing her checking account. After comparing the bank statement to her register, she notices that a deposit of \[tex]$75.00 made on May 1st is missing from the statement.

What is the balance in Natalie's checking account?

A. \$[/tex]5.30
B. \[tex]$80.30
C. \$[/tex]155.30
D. \$175.00



Answer :

Let's break down the problem step by step to find the balance in Natalie's checking account:

1. Initial Balance (as of April 30): According to the account statement, the balance in Natalie's account on April 30th is \[tex]$80.30. 2. Missing Deposit: Natalie notices that a deposit of \$[/tex]75.00 made on May 1st is missing from the statement.

Since the deposit of \[tex]$75.00 was made on May 1st, it is not included in the balance of \$[/tex]80.30 as of April 30th. To find the updated balance, we need to add this missing deposit to the balance as of April 30th.

3. Calculating the New Balance:
- Start with the balance as of April 30th: \[tex]$80.30 - Add the missing deposit: \$[/tex]75.00

[tex]\[ \text{New Balance} = 80.30 + 75.00 = 155.30 \][/tex]

Therefore, the balance in Natalie's checking account is \[tex]$155.30. Answer: \$[/tex]155.30
