Total amount paid by Eunice=$1,044

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine full price of couch

Full price of couch=$1200

Step 2: Determine tax

Tax=tax rate×full price

where;

tax rate=7%

full price=$1200

replacing;

Tax=(7/100)×1,200=$84

Tax=$84

Step 3: Calculate the sale price

Sale price=Full price-20% discount

where;

Full price=$1,200

discount=(20/100)×1,200=$240

replacing;

Sale price=(1,200-240)=960

Sale price=$960

Step 4: Total amount paid by Eunice

Total amount paid by Eunice=Sale price+tax

where;

Sale price=$960

tax=$84

replacing;

Total amount paid by Eunice=(960+84)=$1,044

Total amount paid by Eunice=$1,044

were is the equation
