Convert 30% to a decimal by dividing by 100 = 0.30
Multiply by the cost of the helmet, $50
50 x 0.30 = $15, the amount of the discount.
50-15 = $35, the sale price of the helmet.
For the sales tax, again, convert to a decimal by dividing by 100 = 0.06
35 x 0.06 = 2.10, the amount of sales tax
$35 + $2.10 = $37.10, total cost with tax
Answer:
Norton's
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that the down payment of Mazzeo's store = 1/3 on all installment purchases
Whereas Norton's depot required 30% down payment on installment purchases.
1/3 is fractional value of 33.33%.
therefore, Norton's Store's down payment rate is lower than that of Mazzeo's store.

Let x = price of the bike before a sales tax.
The price after a sales tax of 8% is
x + 0.08x = 1.08x dollars
Because the price paid was $171.18, therefore
1.08x = 171.18
x = 171.18/1.08 = $158.50
Answer: 158.50
