Answer:
$5.83 in taxes.
Explanation:
Discounted price of pants: 23.50 × (1 - 0.3) = 16.45
Discounted price of shirts: 16.25 × (1 - 0.25) = 12.1875
Discounted price of hats: 9.75 × (1 - 0.15) = 8.2875
2 pants, 3 shirts, and 1 hat: 16.45(2) + 12.1875(3) + 8.2875(1) = 77.75
Sales tax: 77.75 × 0.075 = 5.83125
Rounded to nearest cent: $5.83 in sales tax
