Answer 2

The correct option is: (42 • 7) – (8 • 8.25)

Explanation:

Mike saves $42 in each week.

So, the amount he saves in 7 weeks =
`(42 *7)`

He plans to spend $8.25 each day for snacks during his 8-day vacation.

So, the amount he will spent in 8 days =
`(8* 8.25)`

Thus, the amount of money he will have left =
`(42*7)-(8*8.25)`
