Answer 2

The total cost of the order is $75.85 .

Option (b) is correct .

Explanation:

As given

Ronda ordered 3 T-shirts for $15.67 each and one skirt for $24.55 and a 6% tax.

Total cost of the 3 T-shirts and one skirts =3 × Cost of the 1 T - shirts + Cost of the skirt

= 3 × $15.67 + $24.55

= $47.01 + $24.55

= $ 71.56

6% is written in the decimal form

`= (6)/(100)`

= 0.06

Sales tax = 0.06 × Total cost of the 3 T-shirts and one skirts .

= 0.06 × 71.56

= $ 4.2936

Thus

Total cost of the order = Total cost of the 3 T-shirts and one skirts + Sales tax .

Put all the values in the above

Total cost of the order = $71.56 + $ 4.2936

= $ 75.85 (Approx)

Therefore the total cost of the order is $75.85 .

Option (b) is correct .
