Answer

Brief Explanations:

Sal's full - amount was immediately withdrawn from his bank account, which is a characteristic of a debit - card transaction. There is no mention of interest for Sal's purchase, so the total amount he paid is the actual cost of the stereo. Since there is no information to calculate the cost of the stereo from the given data about Jen's interest, we assume the focus is on the card type. A debit card withdraws money directly from the account, while a credit card gives a bill later and may accrue interest.

Answer:

Sal used a debit card. Since no interest is mentioned for Sal, we cannot determine the total cost from the given information. But based on the card - type description, the correct statement about Sal's purchase is that Sal used a debit card. However, among the given options, if we assume the options are about both card - type and total cost (even though the cost calculation is not possible from the given data), the card - type part of the correct option should be "Sal used a debit card". Since the cost part cannot be verified from the given data, we note the card - type aspect. So, the most appropriate option considering the card - type is the one that says Sal used a debit card. But the cost amounts in the options seem to be incorrect as there is no way to calculate the cost of the stereo from the given information about Jen's interest and Sal's immediate withdrawal. If we have to choose based on card - type only, we would say the options with "Sal used a debit card" are relevant in terms of card - type identification.
