Maria is buying several items that cost $128.25 in total. She is using a store
coupon for 20% off her purchases. She has to pay 8.75% sales-tax. How much
did she pay? *
Help me

Respuesta :

the coupon is 35% off, therefore, she actually paid 65%

0.65(128.25) = 83.36 (what she paid without tax)

now we add the sales tax of 4%

83.36 (1.04) = 86.69 <== total cost
