Answer:

A) More than 1/2 of Maria's monthly budget is spent on rent.

Explanation:

Maria's monthly income is $2000. Half of 2000 is $1000. The amount of money she spends on rent is $900, which is $100 less than half. Therefore, A) is false, as Maria does not spend more than 1/2 of her monthly budget on rent.
