Answer: Option 'd' is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Price tag on his video game = $128

Discount rate = 15%

Sales tax = 5.3%

Amount of shipping fee = $4.75

So, Amount of discount is given by


0.15* 128\\\\=\$19.2

Amount after discount is given by


128-19.2\\\\=\$108.8

Amount of sales tax would be


0.053* 108.8\\\\=\$5.7664

So, Amount after sales tax becomes


\$108.8+\45.7664\\\\=\$114.57

Amount after adding shipping charges becomes


\$114.57+\$4.75\\\\=\$119.32

Hence, Option 'd' is correct.
