Maria made some purchses at the Sunflower Market. She bought strawberries for $3.50, carrots for $2.25 and a bouquet of flowers for $9.95. If Maria uses a 20% coupon and has to pay 5.5% tax, how much will she pay in total? (Round your answer to the nearest hundredth)

$13.25

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's add together the cost of all the items Maria bought:

3.50 + 2.25 + 9.95 = 15.70

The total cost of all the items without a coupon or tax is $15.70.

If Maria uses a 20% coupon, the value of the total cost will be 80% of its original value. So, multiply 15.7 by 0.8 to find the cost after the coupon:

15.7 * 0.8 = 12.56

The new total cost is 12.56. Now we need to find the sales tax. Multiply 12.56 by 0.055 to find the value of the sales tax:

12.56 * 0.055 = 0.6908

0.6908 rounds to 0.69. Add the cost of the sales tax to the total cost to get the final

12.56 + 0.69 = 13.25

The total cost Maria will pay is $13.25
