To figure out the amount % off- 7.50×0.2=$1.5 off.
Amount with the discount- 7.50-1.50=$6
The amount with the discount with tax- 6×0.0575=$0.345
The amount with the discount plus tax- 6+0.345=$6.345 or $6.35

For taxes we have:

6 ---------------> 100%

x'---------------> 5.75%

Clearing the value of x' we have:

Then, adding both values we have:
