A. $9.45

B. Total cost = $135.45

Step-by-step explanation:

PART A: If she buys all of the items, how much sales tax will she have to pay?

The sales tax for Brandi's purchase will be $(insert answer here)

PART B: What is the total cost of her purchase including sales tax?

Brandi will spend $(insert answer here) on her purchases, including sales tax.

A.

Total amount earned = $140

Two pairs of shorts = $25 each

Total cost of 2 shorts = 2 shorts × $25 each

= $50

Four shirts = $19 each

Total cost of 4 shirts = 4 × $19

= $76

Amount of Sales tax = 7.5% of Total cost of 2 shorts + Total cost of 4 shirts

= 7.5% ($50 + $76)

= 0.075 × 126

= $9.45

Total cost = Total cost of 2 shorts + Total cost of 4 shirts + Amount of Sales tax

= $50 + $76 + $9.45

= $135.45

Therefore, she has enough money to buy all the items she likes
