Answer:

C . $146.43

Explanation:

lets use variables

dolls = d

remote cars = r

create an equation for the cost of dolls :

3 * 19.99 = $59.97

Create an equation for the cost of the remote cars

4 * 21.99 = $ 87.96

since there was a discount for each car bought, deduct from total cost

$87.96 - 4*3 = $75.96

now add the cost of the dolls and cars as well as the shipping cost :

59.97 + 75.96 + 10.5

= $ 146.43
