Answer 2

`\text{We want to see how much money will be deposited if she took \$137.82}\\\\\text{Add all of the check balances and subtract it by 137.82}\\\\50.32+324.89=375.21‬\\\\375.21‬+753.15=1,128.36\\\\\text{Now subtract 1,128.36 by 137.82}\\\\1,128.36-137.82=990.54\\\\\boxed{\text{Answer: \$990.54}}`
