Answer:

$39.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's determine the sale price before tax:

0.40($60) = $24 is the discount, so

the sale price is $60 - $24, or $36.

Multiplying this result by 1.09 results in the total price, including tax.  It is $39.24.

Answer:

39.24

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will find the discount on the jeans

discount = 60 * 40%

               = 60 * .40

               = 24

The new price of the jeans is the original price minus the discount

new price =60-24

                 = 36

Now we need to find the tax

Tax is the new price times the tax rate

tax   = 36 * 9%

        36 *.09

        3.24

To find the final price, we add the tax to the new price

final price = 36 + 3.24

                 39.24
