The shirt will ring up for $32.06 at the register.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Algebraic Equations.

To begin solving this question, we first need to find the price of the shirt after applying the discount. We calculate this by first turning the percent into a decimal, subtracting 1 by the percent, and then multiplying it by the retail price, like so...

35%   ⇒   0.35

  .... rounded to the nearest hundredth

Now that we have the discounted price we need to add the sales tax by turning the percent into a decimal, adding 1, and multiplying by the discounted price. Like so...

7.25%   ⇒   0.0725

Finally, we can see that the shirt will ring up for $32.06 at the register.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at
