Using a table, we can see that Mrs. Freeman is not correct about the bank account balance.

How to find the balance ?

The table would be:

Transaction Amount Balance

Starting Balance $442.37

- Check Written -$63.92 $378.45

+ Deposit Made +$350.00 $728.45

Based on the table, Mrs. Freeman is incorrect. Her calculated balance after the deposit should be $728.45, not $729.45. She is off by $1.

Starting balance: $442.37

Check written: -$63.92 (subtract because it's a withdrawal)

Balance after check: $442.37 - $63.92

= $378.45

Deposit made: +$350.00 (add because it's a deposit)

Calculated balance: $378.45 + $350.00

= $728.45
