Q. Andy has an entertainment budget each month. In January, Andy decided to use his budget for a music streaming service and a trip to the movie theater with his friends. After spending $14.99\$14.99 on the streaming subscription, Andy still had $40.01\$40.01 left to spend at the movie theater.\newlineLet bb represent Andy's entertainment budget. Which equation models the problem?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) b+14.99=30.01b + 14.99 = 30.01\newline(B) b14.99=40.01b - 14.99 = 40.01\newlineSolve this equation to find Andy's entertainment budget.\newline$\$____\newline
  1. Understand the problem: Step 11: Understand the problem and set up the equation.\newlineAndy spent $14.99\$14.99 on streaming and has $40.01\$40.01 left for movies. His total budget is the sum of these two amounts.\newlineCalculation: b14.99=40.01b - 14.99 = 40.01
  2. Set up the equation: Step 22: Solve the equation for bb. Add 14.9914.99 to both sides to isolate bb. Calculation: b14.99+14.99=40.01+14.99b - 14.99 + 14.99 = 40.01 + 14.99 b=55.00b = 55.00
