Answer: $27.825

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Robert want to buy a sports cap that is on sale for 25% off and the original price is 35$. This means the price of the sports car will be:

= Original price - Discount

= $35 - (25% × $35)

= $35 - (0.25 × $35)

= $35 - $8.75

= $26.25

We are further told that there is a sales tax of 6%. The amount that Robert will need to pay for the cap will be:

= $26.25 + (6% × $26.25)

= $26.25 + (0.06 × $26.25)

= $26.25 + $1.575

= $27.825
