steve is buying a new car at the dealership. the price race on the car reads $15,000.00. However, the salesman offers to sell him the car for 20% off the price tag. If sales tax is 6%, how much does the car cost after tax?

$12,720

Step-by-step explanation:

20% of $15,000.00 = $3,000

$15,000 - $3,000 = $12,000

6% of $12,000 = $720

$12,000 + $720 = $12,720
