Answer 1

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Credit card balance = $34

Amount of sandwich purchased = $40

The cost of sandwich purchased us added to the Initial credit card balance as the balance in a credit card is amount owed.

Hence it could be interpreted as though Joe has made purchases which amounts to $34 with his card before purchasing sandwich that costs $40

Hence; new card balance :

(Intial card balance + cost of sandwich)

$34 + $40 = $74
