The price of 1 sweater before the tax and coupon is $ 13.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Jocelyn bought 2 sweaters for the same price.

The total amount she paid for 2 sweaters is 23.56 dollars.

To find the price of 1 sweater we have to remove the tax and discount amounts.

The total amount for 2 sweaters excluded tax amount= 23.56 - 1.36.

= 22.2 dollars.

The total amount for 2 sweaters after removing discount amount =22.2+5.00.

= 27.2 dollars.

2 sweaters= 27.2.

1 sweaters = .

= 13.6 dollars.
