    Yes, she has $55 and will spend $53.8

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First we need to know how much money Paula has:

    Total money = 3 * 5 + 2 * 10 + 1 * 20 = 15 + 20 + 20 = $55

    Then, we need to know how much money she will spend:

    38.92 + 14.88 = $53.8

    The total she will spend is less than the total she has, so Paula has enough money to buy the coat and the pair of shoes.
