Respuesta :
40% off means you are paying 60% of the original price ( 100% - 40% = 60%
Multiply the price of the coat by 60%:
65.00 x 0.60 = 39.00 ( sale price)
Now multiply the sale price by 1.05 ( price of coat plus tax rate) to get the final cost:
39.00 x 1.05 = 40.95
The final price is $40.95
Answer:
40.95
Step-by-step explanation:
If the jacket is 40% off, you still have to pay 100% -40% or 60%
The new price is the original price times 60%
new price = 65*60%
=39
We need to find the sales tax
tax= price * tax rate
= 39 * 5%
= 39 *.05
=1.95
Final cost is the new price plus the tax
Final cost = 39+1.95
=40.95
