Answer:
=103.95
Final price = 180 *.55 * (1.05)
Step-by-step explanation:
Discount is equal to original price times discount rate
Discount = 180 *45%
= 180 *.45
=81
New price = original price - discount
New price = 180 - 81
= 99
Tax = new price * tax rate
= 99 * 5%
=4.95
Final price = new price + tax
= 99 + 4.95
=103.95
45% off means she still needs to pay (100-45) or 55 percent of the price so
New price = 180 *.55
Tax means adding the 5 % to the price That is 1.05 percent of the price
She multiplied by .95 so she subtracted the tax instead of adding
Final price = 180 *.55 * (1.05)
