Dante cashed a check for \( \$ 82.11 \) and then bought an MP3 player for \( \$ 39.92 \) and a special pair of earphones for \( \$ 11.54 \). After paying for his purchases, how much did he have left? After Dante paid for his purchases, he had \( \$ \square \) left. (Type an integer or a decimal.)

First, let's calculate the total amount Dante spent on the MP3 player and the earphones. He spends \( \$ 39.92 \) on the MP3 player and \( \$ 11.54 \) on the earphones. Adding these together gives us: \[ 39.92 + 11.54 = 51.46 \] Now, we subtract this total expenditure from the amount he cashed: \[ 82.11 - 51.46 = 30.65 \] Thus, after Dante paid for his purchases, he had \( \$ 30.65 \) left.
