15. brandt is buying a new set of golf clubs for $584. if the clubs are on sale now for 30% off and sales tax is 7%, how much will he pay in total?

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the price after discount

The original price is $584$ and the discount is $30%$. The price after - discount $P_1$ is calculated as $P_1=(1 - 0.30)\times584=0.7\times584 = 408.8$.

Step2: Calculate the price after tax

The sales tax is $7%$. The total price $P$ that Brandt will pay is calculated as $P=(1 + 0.07)\times P_1$. Substitute $P_1 = 408.8$ into the formula, we get $P = 1.07\times408.8=437.416\approx437.42$.

Answer:

$437.42$
