Answer:

$127.03

Explanation:

A snow cone machine price at $139 is on sale for 20 off.

The price after discount = 139 - 20 = $119

The sales tax rate = 6.75%

Price with sales tax = 119 + (6.75% × 119)

= 119 + (0.0675 × 119)

= 119 + 8.03

= 127.03

The price of the snow cone machine after the discount and sales tax is $127.03.

the snow cone machine is 139......it is on sale for $ 20 off.
139 - 20 = 119

the sale tax rate is 6.75%....
1.0675 * 119 = 127.032 rounds to $ 127.03 <==
