Let the original price of the sweater be = X
Then the amount Jerome pays for the sweater after 20% discount = X - (20X/100)
= X - 0.2X
= 0.8X
Now on this price the 8.25% tax needs to be added to get to the amount actually paid by Jerome.
So,
0.8X + [(8.25/100) * (0.8X) = 25.1
This is the equation from which the actual price of the sweater bought by Jerome can be determined.
So
0.8X + [(.0825) * ( 0.8X) = 25.1
0.8X + 0.066X = 25.1
0.866X = 25.1
X = 25.1/0.866
= 28.98
So the actual price of the sweater is $28.98.
Suppose R = {1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17} and D={3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27} r d

The intersection of sets R and D is give by the following set:
R ∩ D = {3, 9, 15}.
<h3>What is the missing information?</h3>
This problem is incomplete, but researching it on a search engine, we find that it asks the intersection of sets R and D.
<h3>What is the set that is the intersection of two sets?</h3>
The set that is the intersection of two sets is composed by the elements that belong to both sets.
For this problem, the sets are given as follows:
- R = {1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17}.
- D={3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27}
Hence the intersection is given by:
R ∩ D = {3, 9, 15}.
As the elements 3, 9 and 15 are the only ones that belong to both sets.
