Answer 1

Answer:

C: Glenda has been over charged by $3.40 for her purchase

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The amount Glenda is to pay can be found by applying arithmetic

operations to the given parameters in the correct order.

• The correct option is; c. Glenda has been overcharged $3.40 for her purchase.

Reasons:

The price of each picture frame = $12.95

Number of picture frame purchased = 4

Price of each mat = $5.89

Number of mats purchased = 4

Total purchase price = $12.95 × 4 + $5.89 × 4 = $75.36

Total purchase price + Tax = $75.36 × 0.065 + $75.36 ≈ $80.26

Express Shipping charges for amount of purchase between $50 to $100 is given from the table as; $8.20

Total bill = Total purchase + Tax + Shipping

Therefore;

Total bill = $80.26 + $8.20 = $88.46

Amount the credit card is billed = $91.86

Amount of over charge = $91.86 - $88.46 = $3.40

Therefore, Glenda has been over charged by $3.40 for her purchase
