Question

A one-night stay at the Great Wolf Lodge is
$249. If you have a coupon for 10% off the
room rate and sales tax is 12.75%, find the
total cost for one night.

Answer 1

Answer: $252.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Find 12.75% of 249 by using formula T= A + (A•I/100)

T=249+(249•12.75)/100)= 31.75 (taxes)

Then add taxes to room cost;

249+31.75= 280.75

Then you’d apply the coupon of 10% by using; Discount = Original Price x Discount %/100

Discount = 10% or 10/100=0.1

Discount = 280.75 x 0.1

= $28.08

Now you’d find the final price by;

Final Price = Original Price - Discount

Final Price = 280.75 - 28.075

Final Price = $252.68
