Suppose you have a coupon for a 20% discount. You buy a game
that costs $38. The sales tax rate is 5.5%. Sales tax applies to
the cost after the discount. What is the total cost of the game?

Answer:

Cost(c)= $32.02

Step-by-step explanation:

20/100 = .20 now, out of a whole, .80 is missing so:

.80 x 38 = 30.40.

Now, we divide 5.5/100 = 0.055.

After, we times that by 30.4 = 1.62.

Now we know we need to add 30.40 + 1.62.

So, we get: $32.02 OR 32 dollars and 2 cents.
