Joel wants to buy a new tablet computer from a store having a 20% off sale on all tablets. The tablet he wants has an original cost of $190. He also wants to make sure he has enough money to pay the 5% sales tax. How much will Joel pay for the tablet?

161.5 $

Step-by-step explanation:

the cost of table after the discount = 100% - 20% = 80%

the cost of table after the discount = Original cost × 80%

=(190)(0.8)

=152 $

the cost of table after the discount plus the tax = (the cost of table after the discount) + (Original cost × 5%)

=152+(190)(0.05)

=152+9.5

=161.5 $

So... The total amount will Joel pay for the tablet = 161.5 $
