Question

While reviewing his budget, Andre calculated his variable and total expenses for last month: variable expenses: $2,863.09 total expenses: $4,630.16 Write the expense equation to represent Andre's fixed expenses. Don't include the $ symbol

Answer 1

Answer:

Andre's fixed expenses are  $1,767.07.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total expenses are the sum of variable expenses and fixed expenses

$T=V+F$

Where $T$ is total expenses, $V$ is variable expenses and $F$ is fixed expenses.

We know that $T=4,630.16; V=2,863.09$. Replacing these values, and solving for F, we have

$T=V+F\\F=T-V\\F=4,630.16-2,863.09\\F=1,767.07$

Therefore, Andre's fixed expenses are  $1,767.07.

Answer 2

Answer:

Fixed expenses = 1767.07

Step-by-step explanation:

Andre calculated his variable and total expenses for last month.

His variable expenses is $2,863.09

His total expenses is $4,630.16

Now, Total expenses = Variable expenses + Fixed expenses

So, Fixed expenses = Total expenses - Variable expenses

⇒ F = T - V

⇒ F = 4630.16 - 2863.09

⇒ F = 1767.07

So, this the equation to represent Andre's fixed income. (Answer)
