opps! it looks like task 1 is no longer passing? message but I have not changed task 1???

I pass the salesTotal variable part but when I click "check work" for the profit varible task it tells me that the salesyotal is no longer working? Also today the workspaces would'nt print to the demo screen.

script.js 
var wholesalePrice = 5.45;
var retailPrice = 9.99;
var quantity = 47;
var salesTotal= retailPrice * quantity;
var profit= salestotal - wholesalePrice * quantity;

You need to capitalize the letter T in the variable salesTotal on the last line.

thank you Robert, that was a simple error I should have caught but the feedback message really threw me off.
