you made two deposits to your bank account this month . One deposit was 17.92, and the second deposit was 15.33. Your balance at the end of the month is 72.31, and you made no withdrawals. Which expression shows your balance at the beginning of the month?

a. $72.31+(17.92- 15.33)
b. 72.31-(17.92 - 15.33)
c. 72.31+ 17.92 + 15.33 **
d. 72.31 - 17.92- 15.33

To determine the balance at the beginning of the month, you can subtract the total deposit amount from the ending balance.

Option c. 72.31 + 17.92 + 15.33 represents the total balance by adding the deposits to the ending balance. This expression does not represent the balance at the beginning of the month.

Option d. 72.31 - 17.92 - 15.33 represents subtracting the total deposits from the ending balance, which is incorrect.

Thus, the correct expression is:

a. $72.31 + (17.92 - 15.33)

By subtracting the second deposit (15.33) from the first deposit (17.92), you get the net deposit. Adding this net deposit (2.59) to the ending balance (72.31) will give you the balance at the beginning of the month.

To find the balance at the beginning of the month, we can subtract the total of the deposits from the end of the month balance. Therefore, the correct expression would be:

d. 72.31 - 17.92 - 15.33
