Answer:
[tex]Total = \$68.34[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Price = \$88.99[/tex]
[tex]Discount = 30\%[/tex]
[tex]Sales\ Tax = 9.7\%[/tex]
Required
Determine the payable amount.
First, calculate the amount after discount
[tex]Amount = Price - Price * Discount[/tex]
[tex]Amount = Price (1 - PDiscount)[/tex]
[tex]Amount = \$88.99(1 - 30\%)[/tex]
[tex]Amount = \$88.99(70\%)[/tex]
[tex]Amount = \$62.293[/tex]
The total after sales tax is:
[tex]Total = Amount (1 + Sales\ Tax)[/tex]
[tex]Total = \$62.293 (1 + 9.7\%)[/tex]
[tex]Total = \$62.293 (1 + 0.097)[/tex]
[tex]Total = \$62.293 (1.097)[/tex]
[tex]Total = \$68.335421[/tex]
[tex]Total = \$68.34[/tex]
$68.34 will be paid
