$98.68
Option A
Explanation:Cost of 1 suitcase = $44.50
Cost of 2 suitcases = 2 x $44.50
Cost of 2 suitcases = $89
He had to pay 6.5% sales tax
Sales tax = 6.5% of $89
Sales tax = (6.5/100) x $89
Sales tax = $5.785
Shipping charge = $3.89
Total amount = Cost of 2 suitcases + Sales tax + Shipping charge
Total amount = $89 + $5.785 + $3.89
Total amount = $98.675
Total amount he was billed = $98.68 (rounded to 2 decimal places)
