The cost of the first purchase was $612.

The cost of the 2nd purchase is c.

Her credit limit is $2000.

The total amount she spent will be


612+c

Since the cost is above the credit limit, it means that the total cost is greater than 2000.'

Therefore, we can write the expression mathematically as


612+c>2000

Therefore, the correct option is OPTION D.
