To find the price after the 20% discount, we first need to find how much the discount is.
Discount = 20% of $16.00
Discount = 0.20 x $16.00
Discount = $3.20
So, the discounted price of the shirt is:
Discounted price = $16.00 - $3.20
Discounted price = $12.80
Next, we calculate the sales tax:
Sales tax = 4% of $12.80
Sales tax = 0.04 x $12.80
Sales tax = $0.512
Finally, we add the sales tax to the discounted price to find the final price:
Final price = $12.80 + $0.512
Final price = $13.312
Rounded to the nearest penny, the final price of the shirt after the discount is taken and the tax is added is $13.31.
The original price of a shirt is $16.00. The price of the shirt is discounted by 20%, then a 4% sales tax is added. What is the FINAL price of the shirt after the discount is taken and the tax is added? Round to the nearest penny.
