Answer 2

Answer:

No. Omar does not have enough money to move into his apartment. He needs save $177 more

Explanation:

1. Write all the expenses to move:

Security Deposit $500

Application Fee $10

First Month's Rent $550

Electricity $25

Conection fee $40

Telephone $36

Connect water $40

Water per month $26

Deposit $50

2. Add up all the expenses to move

Expenses to move=$500+$10+$550+$25+$40+$36+$40+$26+$50

Expenses to move=$1277

3. As Omar has saved $1,100 you should subtract the total cost of all the expenses to know if he can pay everything to move:

Total=$1,100-$1,277

Total=-$177

Therefore Omar does not have enough money to move into his apartment.
