Answer:

$311.49

Step-by-step explanation:

*remember when turning percents to decimals you move the decimal to spots to the left. so 5% as a decimal is 0.05 and 10% as a decimal is 10

step 1) multiply 349.99 by 0.18 to find the price of discount. 349.99 times 0.18 is 62.9

step 2) subtract 62.9 from 349.99 to find the price with the discount. the answer is 287.09

step 3) multiply 287.09 times 0.085 to find the price of the tax. which is 24.4

step 4) add 287.09 and 24.4 which is 311.49
