Answer:

$33.60

Step-by-step explanation:

1. multiply the price (40) times 20% (.20)

    40*.20=8 - that's the amount of the discount

2. Subtract 8 from 40

    40-8=32 - that's the discounted price.

3. multiply 32 by 5% (0.05)

    32*.05 = 1.60 - that's the sales tax

4. add 32 + 1.60 = 33.60
