I meant 5.50 I didn't mean the 15.50....oops

To find out how much money the customer should have received back from the self-checkout register, we need to calculate the difference between the amount the customer paid and the total cost of the products.

The customer paid with a $20 bill, and the total cost of the products is $14.50. So, to find the difference, we subtract the total cost from the amount paid:

$20 - $14.50 = $5.50

Therefore, the customer should have received $5.50 back from the automated register.
