Acustomer buys a different book that has an original selling price of $38. the book is discounted 25%. the customer must pay a 6% sales tax on the discounted price of the book. what is the total amount, in dollars, the customer pays for the discounted book?

The total amount customer pays for the discounted book is $ 30.21 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

A customer buys a different book that has an original selling price of $38.

The book is discounted 25%.

25% is written in the decimal form

= 0.25

Discount amount = 0.25 × Selling price of the books

                            = 0.25 × 38

                            = $ 9.5

Cost of the books after getting discount of 25% = Selling price of the books - Discount amount

                                                                                = $ 38 - $ 9.5

                                                                                = $ 28.5

As given

The customer must pay a 6% sales tax on the discounted price of the book.

6% is written in the decimal form

= 0.06

Sales tax amount = 0.06 × Cost of the books after getting discount of 25% .

                             = 0.06 × 28.5

                             = $ 1.71

Thus

Total amount pays by the customer for the books = Sales tax amount + Cost of the books after getting discount of 25%.

                                                                                   = $ 1.71 + $ 28.5

                                                                                   = $ 30.21

Therefore the total amount customer pays for the discounted book is $ 30.21 .

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
