Answer:
$158.74
Step-by-step explanation:
A sound system has a regular price of $249. Now, we have to find the total cost of it if there is a sale for 40% off and the sales tax is 6.25%.
Now, if there is 40% off on price $249, then the discounted price will be
[tex]249(1 - \frac{40}{100}) = 149.4[/tex] dollars.
Then the after-tax value of the sound system at the rate of 6.25% will be [tex]149.4(1 + \frac{6.25}{100}) = 158.74[/tex] dollars (Approximate)
