Answer: $116.15

Step-by-step explanation:

We first would start with the last  thing, the $38.50 Lisa has left! From reading the word problem, we can tell that she had another $38.50 she spent on a radio.She spends $7.20 (ring) + $1.95 (battery) before this and gives her mom $30.

All of these are subtractions from the initial amount:

x - 1.95 - 30.00 - 7.20 - 38.50 = 38.50

x - 77.65 = 38.50

x = $116.15
