Respuesta :

Answer:

$29.16

Step-by-step explanation:

This is found by multiplying 30 by .9 which gives you 27

Then multiply 27 by 1.08 to get the price after tax.  (29.16)

Answer:

She will have to pay 29.16

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the discount

30 * 10% =

30 *.10 = 3

Then find the discounted price

30 - 3 = 27

Now find the sales tax

27 * 8%

27 * .08

2.16

Add the sales tax to the discounted price

27+2.16

29.16

She will have to pay 29.16
