Answer:

[tex]y = 2796 + x[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

[tex]m = 233[/tex] --- monthly expense

[tex]Extra = x[/tex]

Required

The total expenses

First, we calculate the annual billing

[tex]Annual = m * 12[/tex]

[tex]Annual = 233 * 12[/tex]

[tex]Annual = 2796[/tex]

The family's total expenses (y) is calculated by adding the annual billing and the extra expense

[tex]y = Annual + Extra[/tex]

[tex]y = 2796 + x[/tex]
