total cost of shopping spree:

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate discounted pretax (socks)

Discount amount: $8 \times 0.25 = 2$
Discounted pretax: $8 - 2 = 6$

Step2: Calculate HST (socks)

HST: $6 \times 0.13 = 0.78$
Total cost (socks): $6 + 0.78 = 6.78$

Step3: Calculate discounted pretax (women's sleep set)

Discount is 50% (half), so:
$14 \times 0.5 = 7$ (taxable, assume ✓)
HST: $7 \times 0.13 = 0.91$
Total cost (sleep set): $7 + 0.91 = 7.91$

Step4: Calculate discounted pretax (cordless drills)

Discount is 75%, so:
$32.97 \times (1-0.75) = 32.97 \times 0.25 = 8.2425 \approx 8.24$
HST: $8.24 \times 0.13 = 1.0712 \approx 1.07$
Total cost (drills): $8.24 + 1.07 = 9.31$

Step5: Calculate discounted pretax (TV)

Discount amount: $148 \times 0.10 = 14.8$
Discounted pretax: $148 - 14.8 = 133.2$
HST: $133.2 \times 0.13 = 17.316 \approx 17.32$
Total cost (TV): $133.2 + 17.32 = 150.52$

Step6: Calculate discounted pretax (iPad)

No discount listed, so pretax = $579$
HST: $579 \times 0.13 = 75.27$
Total cost (iPad): $579 + 75.27 = 654.27$

Step7: Sum all total costs

Total shopping cost: $6.78 + 7.91 + 9.31 + 150.52 + 654.27$
