Answer 1

With the three bills she has to pay the total cost comes up to $184. 45
This figure is found from the addition of $79+$59. 95+$45.50

The plan charges $129. 99

To find how much money she saves you would need to calculate the difference

$184. 45 - $129. 99
= $148. 51

Marina saves $54. 46 montly

Answer 2

She would save 54.45 because addding them up individually before the plan would cost 184.49 and to find the difference all you have to do is subtract 184.49-129.99 and that would tell you how much she saved
