Answer: The sale price of the chair including tax = $221.83
Step-by-step explanation:
Regular price of chair = $435
Discount = 47%
Sales price = 47 % of (Regular price)
= $ 0.47 (435)
= $ 204.45
Tax rate = 8.5% = 0.085
Tax amount = Tax rate × Sales price
= 0.085 × 204.45
= 17.37825≈ $ 17.38
The sale price of the chair including tax = Sales price + Tax amount
= $ ( 204.45+17.38)
= $ 221.83
Hence, the sale price of the chair including tax = $221.83
