Bruce saved $35.00 to buy a new video game. The game's original price was $42.00, but it was on sale for 30% off. The sales tax rate was 5% Did Bruce have enough money to buy the game? Explain.

yes because if the original price is $42 and you take off the 30% it will be 12.6 plus the sale tax rate it will be $13.10 and he will have $21.90 left
