$1,713.98

$1,553.53

$1,748.13

$1,518.69

Option A. $1713.98

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to calculate your parents' monthly fixed expenses by the given expenses list.

Rent = $998.50

Groceries ( bi-weekly ) = $195.40 Monthly groceries = (195.40×2)

Charge card = $258.90

Cell phone = $65.78

Name brand Khakis for work (store brand optional ) = $34.95

Total expenses are 998.50 + (195.40×2) + 258.90 + 65.78

= $1713.98

Option A. $1713.98

graphically?   well, you graph them both, the solutions is where they both intersect each other, since there are two solutions, meaning they will meet twice, or namely the linear will run into the quadratic curve twice, and where they meet, those x,y coordinates are the solutions to the system.

x = 3 ± √(5+y)
