Becky and Julia decided to go on vacation. They found a great deal for 20% off any cruise. If their budget is $1,115, where can they go on their vacation? Mexico- $1,499, Caribbean- $1,250, Jamaca- $1,375, Florida- $1,150. Standard 10% sales tax applies

Answer:

Explanation:

20% of 1150 is 230, so 1150-230=920

if the tax is applied after the discount, you find 10% of 920 (which is 92)

you add that to the discounted price 920+92= 1012, so they could go to florida.
