Final answer:

To find the amount Kay deposited in cash and coins, we must add the cash received to the total deposited and subtract the sum of the pre-listed amounts. After performing these calculations, we find that Kay deposited $93.44 in cash and coins.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asked to calculate how much Kay deposited in cash and coins using an incomplete deposit ticket with certain given amounts and a total deposit amount. To find the answer, one should add the individual deposited amounts and then subtract this sum from the total deposit to get the cash and coins amount that Kay deposited.

Let's add the deposited amounts:

  • $520.15
  • $57.68
  • $40.25

Sum of deposited amounts = $520.15 + $57.68 + $40.25 = $618.08

Now, subtract the sum of deposited amounts from the total deposited:

Total deposited - Sum of deposited amounts = $498.01 - $618.08

However, this calculation gives us a negative number, we still need to account for the cash received, which was:

  • $213.51 (cash received)

So, cash and coins Kay deposited = Total deposited + Cash received - Sum of deposited amounts

Cash and coins Kay deposited = $498.01 + $213.51 - $618.08 = $93.44 (Answer)
