Eunice lives in Indiana, which has a sales tax of 7%. She just bought a couch
whose full price was $1200, but she got 20% off, because the store was
having a sale. What was the total amount that Eunice paid?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The total amount that Eunice paid is  $1027.2

Explanation:

Given the price of the couch is $1200

She was charged a sales tax of 7% and got a discount of 20% because the store was having a sale

Price after sales tax and discount can be calculated

by the formula =  [tex]$1200 \times\left(1+\frac{7}{100}\right) \times\left(1-\frac{20}{100}\right)$[/tex]

Solving,

[tex]$1200 \times\left(\frac{107}{100}\right) \times\left(\frac{80}{100}\right)$[/tex]

      = $1027.2

Therefore, Eunice paid a final price of $1027.2 after tax and discount.
