Ray looked in the local Sunday Advertisement and noticed Footlocker had the new Jordans on sale for $30.00 off with the purchase of a Jordan T-shirt. The shirt cost $12.99. The regular price of the Jordans is $189.00. There is a sales tax of 7% that is applied to the sale cost. Ray has a budget of $189.00 to spend. Will he have enough money to purchase the t-shirt, and the Jordans on sale?

Answer 1

Answer:

Ray has enough money to purchase the t-shirt and the Jordans on sale.

Step-by-step explanation:

Regular cost of Jordans  =$ $189.00$

Cost of Jordan's T-shirt = $$12.99$

Total cost  = $ $189.00$ + $$12.99$ = $$201.99$

Discount offered on purchase of T-shirt = $$30.00$

Price after discount = $$201.99$ - $$30.00$ =$$171.99$

Sales tax = $7$%

Tax to be added = $$171.99\times\frac{7}{100}$ = $$12.04$

Final price = $$171.99$ + $$12.04$ =$$184.03$

Amount Ray has = $ $189.00$

∴ Ray has enough money to purchase the t-shirt and the Jordans on sale.
