Answer: $100.12
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to multiply the regular price of the pair of shoes by the percent discount in decimal form (divided by 100)
127 x ( 28/100) =
127 x ( 0.28) = $35.56 (amount of the discount)
Next, we have to subtract the discount to the regular price
127-35.56 = $91.44 (discounted price)
Tax: 9 1/2 %= (9x2+1)/2 = 19/2 =9.5%
We have to multiply the discounted price by the tax percentage ( decimal form)
91.44 x (9.5/100) =
91.44 x 0.095 = $ 8.68 (tax amount)
Finally we have to add that amount to the discounted price:
91.44 + 8.68 = $100.12
