An office supply store carriers a all-in-one printer with a regular price of $240. The printer is on sale at 15% off. In addition, the store is offering a $20 mail-in rebate. How much will it cost a customer to purchase this printer, including 5% sales tax on the in-store purchase price?

Answer 1

Answer:

Price of the printer is = $193.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Office supply store purchased an all in one printer wit a regular price = $240

After 15% off price of the printer = $240 - 15% of $240

                                                     = $240-\frac{15\times 240}{100}$

                                                     = 240 - 36

                                                     = $204

The store is offering $20 mail in rebate so the price of printer after rebate

= $204 - $20

= $184

Now price of the printer including sales tax = 184 + 5% of 184

= 184 + $\frac{5\times 184}{100}$

= 184 + 9.20

= $193.20
