$ 65 Dress Final Price : 
65 + (7% of 65) - (20% Of 65)
= 65 + 0.07*65 - 0.2*65
= $56.55

Answer:

$56.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A $65.00 dress is on sale for 20% off, and the sales tax is 7%.

To Find : Find the total purchase price to the nearest cent

Solution:

Normal Price of dress = $65

Sale is of 20 %

So, price of dress on sale = [tex]65-20\% \times 65[/tex]

                                           = [tex]52[/tex]

Sales tax = 7%

So, Final price including sales tax = [tex]52+7\% \times 65[/tex]

                                                        = [tex]56.55[/tex]

Hence the total purchase price is $56.55
