Answer:

Jamal can spend $90.29 to buy a gift for a friend.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to sum all bills and coins denomination separately, then sum all the money and subtract $10, to know how much he can spend:

[tex]3*1one-dollar=3\\4*5five-dollar=20\\7*10ten-dollar=70\\15*0.25quarter=3.75\\12*0.10dime=1.20\\34*0.05nickel=1.70\\64*0.01pennie=0.64[/tex]

This sum:

[tex]Money=100.29[/tex]

Then subtracting the $10.00 we have:

[tex]100.29-10.00=90.29[/tex]

Jamal can spend $90.29 to buy a gift for a friend.
