Answer:

leasing a car so she can give up her bus pass ( D )

Step-by-step explanation:

Leasing a car is rather more expensive than using the bus. this is because when you lease a car you stand more risk of spending more like paying the leasing fees and any other sort of accrued fees due to breach in agreed time of return, fueling the car and also been careful not to be involved in an auto accident and other factors which you might not need to be worried about when you take the Bus.

shopping at a second hand store will help you save more and still get quality for your goods purchased and paying your credit card bill on time helps to limit extra monthly expenses.

Answer:

The answer is: D) Leasing a car so she can give up her bus pass

Step-by-step explanation:

If Shereen wants to lower her monthly expenses, leasing a car will not help her. Usually taking a bus or any other type of mass transportation system is much cheaper than leasing a car and all the other expenses related to keeping a car running (e.g. gasoline, engine services, parking fees, etc.).
