Question

gregory sees an $80.00 jacket on sale at 30% off. how much will it cost after a 7% sales tax is applied?
○ $56.00
○ $59.92
○ $64.00
○ $67.43

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the price after 30% off

The discount is 30%, so the price after discount is \( 80\times(1 - 0.30) = 80\times0.70 = 56 \) dollars.

Step2: Calculate the price after adding 7% sales tax

Now we need to add 7% tax to this price. The tax amount is \( 56\times0.07 = 3.92 \) dollars. So the final price is \( 56 + 3.92 = 59.92 \) dollars.

Answer:

\$59.92
