Question

A sound system has a regular price of $249. Find the total cost of it is on sale for 40% off and the sales tax is 6.25%

Answer 1

Answer:

$158.74

Step-by-step explanation:

A sound system has a regular price of $249. Now, we have to find the total cost of it if there is a sale for 40% off and the sales tax is 6.25%.

Now, if there is 40% off on price $249, then the discounted price will be

$249(1 - \frac{40}{100}) = 149.4$ dollars.

Then the after-tax value of the sound system at the rate of 6.25% will be $149.4(1 + \frac{6.25}{100}) = 158.74$ dollars (Approximate)
