Number of items bought by Isabella:

Number of skirts = Ns = 3

Pairs of jeans = Nj = 2

Number of sweaters = Nsw = 4

Price of a skirt = Ps= 35.99

Price of a pair of jeans = Pj = 49.99

Price of a sweater = Psw = 32.99

Expression to calculate how much Isabella spent = (Ns × Ps) + (Nj × Pj) + (Nsw × Psw)

Evaluating the expression by substituting with respective values:

Total Money Spent by Isabella = (3 × 35.99) + (2 × 49.99) + (4 × 32.99)

⇒ Total Money Spent by Isabella = 107.07 + 99.98 + 131.96

⇒ Total Money Spent by Isabella = 339.01
