Blake needs $46.59 more to afford the tennis shoes. So, the answer is C.

The amount of money Blake needs in order to purchase the tennis shoes is $46.59.

The first step to take in order to determine the answer is to find the amount that is in Blake's checking account. Blake's balance would be added to the deposits and withdrawals would be subtracted.

$42.86 + $35.42 - $13.55 + $52.12 + $11.50 - $17.33 - $21.45 = $89.39

Blake's balance in his checking account is $89.39. The second step is to subtract the amount he has in his checking account from the cost of the tennis shoes.

$135.98 - $89.39 = $46.59
