Answer:

D. She earns $580 and spends $422.

Step-by-step explanation:

The option of Monica earning $580 and spending $422 will allow her to have enough money to buy the new computer.

First, add $580 to the $284 that she already has saved:

284 + 580

= $864

Then, subtract $422 from this:

864 - 422

= $442

So, this option will leave her with $442. Since she only needed to save at least $399 to buy the computer, this means she has enough money for it.

The option that will let her buy the computer is D. She earns $580 and spends $422.
