Answer:

cost of the bike =$300

discount = 30%

Price of the bike ={ (30/100)×300}-300=210

Sales tax= 8%

Final cost =( 8/100)×210=16.80+210=226.80

Answer:

[see below]

Explanation:

The bike's original price is 300 dollars. It has been discounted by 30%.

300 * 0.3 = 90

The price would be 90 dollars off.

300 - 90 = 210

$210 would be the subtotal.

There is also an 8% sales tax.

210 * 0.08 = 16.80

210 + 16.80 = 226.80

Hope this helps you!
