Question 24 • POP Financial Math 26/27

Tyrell is gearing up for the football season and decides to purchase some items online. He has a promotional code for a one time $10 off any purchase of $50 or more. Tyrell orders 2 new jerseys at $32.89 each and a hat for $23.99. Tyrell pays 7% sales tax on his purchase, but pays no shipping charges. What is the total of Tyrell’s online purchase?

Answer
A
$50.16
B
$79.77
C
$85.35
D
$96.05

Explanation

The two jerseys cost 2 × $32.89 = $65.78. Adding the $23.99 hat gives a subtotal of $89.77, so Tyrell can use the $10 discount; the discounted amount is $79.77. Sales tax is 7% of $79.77, or about $5.58, making the total $85.35, choice C.
