Answer:
$35.10
Step-by-step explanation:
The discount amount is subtracted from the original price to find the discounted price. That math can be done a couple of different ways.
discount = discount rate × original price
sale price = original price - discount
Or, these equations can be combined:
sale price = original amount × (1 - discount rate)
__
Using the latter equation, we get ...
sale price = $45.00 × (1 - 0.22) = $45.00 × 0.78 = $35.10
Leia will be paying $35.10 for the jacket.
