What a deal! Just deShirts is having a 20% off sale. Trixie rushes to the store and buys 14 shirts. When the clerk rings up her

purchases, Trixie sees that the clerk has added the 5% sales tax first, before taking the discount. Trixie wonders whether adding the sales tax before the discount makes her final cost more than adding the sales tax after the discount. Without making any calculations, make a conjecture. Is Trixie getting charged more when the clerk adds sales tax first? The next few problems will help you figure it out for sure.
Does it matter if sales tax is added before the discount or after her final total? (Yes or no AND why or why not?)
