Answer 1

Answer: Sale price before tax $90.99

Tax $7.39

Total after tax $98.38

Explanation:

Sale price 139.99 x 0.65 = 90.99

Tax 90.99 x 8.125/100 = 7.39

Total 90.99 + 7.39 = 98.38

Answer 2

A pair of Nike Air Jordan sneakers cost $139.99.

There is a 35% off sale going on at Foot Locker.

=> Sale price = 139.99 - 139.99 x 35/100 = ~$90.99

Sales tax is 8.125% in Orange County.

=> The tax = 90.99 x 8.125/100 = ~$7.39

The total price is calculated by:

P = The sale price + The tax = 90.99 + 7.39 = ~$98.38

Hope this helps!
