Answer 1

On Sunday the balance was $37.00
on Mon $37+$17.42=$54.42
on Tue $54.42-$12.6=$41.82
on Wed $41.82-$9.62=$32.20
on Thur $32.20+$62.29=$94.49
so the correct answer is C

Answer 2

Option C. $94.49

Explanation:

Jaime had a balance in his bank account on Sunday = $37

The table shows his account activity for the next four days.

From the given table we add all the deposits to his balance and then subtract all the withdrawals.

Balance on Sunday + Deposits

= 37.00 + 17.42 + 62.29 = $ 116.71

Now we subtract all the withdrawals

= 116.71 - (12.60 + 9.62)

= 116.71 - 22.22 = $94.49

The balance would be $94.49 in Jaime's account after his deposit on Thursday.
