Answer:
The amount of tax paid is C. $3.20
Step-by-step explanation:
If we take $50.00 and give a 20% discount, we're taking 20% of 50 and then subtracting it from the origional price (50) which brings us down to 40, because 20% of 50 is 10 and we subtract.
Now that we have $40.00, sales tax comes in at a whopping 8%. To calculate the solution of a price with sales tax, we need to find what 8% of $40 is, which after calculations will be 3.20.
Since this question is asking on tax only, our answer is $3.200, C.
