Answer: $49.056
Step-by-step explanation:
Salim bought 32 feet of window trim at a hardware store and the trim cost $1.75 per foot. The total cost will then be:
= 32 × $1.75
= $56
She used a 20% coupon to purchase the window trim. The amount she will pay will be:
= $56 - (20% × $56)
= $56 - (0.2 × $56)
= $56 - $11.2
= $44.8
A sales tax of 9.5% was then applied to the total purchase. The amount Salim will end up paying will be:
= $44.8 + (9.5% × $44.8)
= $44.8 + (0.095 × $44.8)
= $44.8 + $4.256
= $49.056
