Question

Game stop is having a 15% off sale. If the game rocket league is $40 and the sales tax rate is 6.25%, how much would you pay after the discount and sales tax is applied?

Answer 1

Answer:

$36.13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the price of the game rocket league is $40.

There is a 15% discount:

discount = 0.15 x $40 = $6

Therefore price after discount = 40 - 6 = $34

There is a sales tax of 6.25%:

sales tax = 0.0625 x $34 = $2.125

Therefore price after applying sales tax = 34 + 2.125 = $36.125

$36.125 ≈ $36.13

Answer 2

The buyer will pay $36.125 after the discount and sales tax

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Price of Rocket league = $40

Discount = 15%

Sales tax = 6.25%

First of all we have to find the discounted price

So,

$Discount = 15\%\ of\ 40\\= 0.15*40\\=6$

The discount is $6.

The discounted price will be:

$Discounted\ price = price - discount\\= 40-6\\= \ 34$

The sales tax will be applied on this discounted price now.

So,

$Sales\ tax = 6.25\%\ of\ 34\\= 0.0625 * 34\\=2.125$

So the total price of Rocket league after discount and sales tax will be:

$Final\ price = Discounted\ price + Sales\ tax\\= 34+2.125\\=36.125$

Hence,

The buyer will pay $36.125 after the discount and sales tax
