Answer: Terry paid  $18.36 for the sweater.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Sales price of sweater = $24

Coupon states [tex]\dfrac14[/tex] off the sales, i.e. Terry will get [tex]\dfrac14\times24=\$6[/tex] discount.

Also, tax rate = 6%

Tax will be charged = 6% of Sales price of sweater

=  0.06 x 6

= $0.36

Now , Final amount for Terry = Sales price - discount +tax

= $(24-6+0.36)= $18.36

Hence, Terry paid  $18.36 for the sweater.
