(WORTH 20 POINTS) Please help I don't know how to do this In your own words, what do the terms sales tax and discount mean? Is a 5 percent sales tax a percent of increase or decrease? What about a 15 percent discount?

lol help-

In layman's terms, that means if the original price of something you sell was $100, but you offer a 50% discount, then the taxable price is $50. Sale Price = original price – (% of discount * original price)

Sales Tax = Sales Tax rate * Sale Price.

Sales Tax = 0.05 * $17.21 = $0.8605 = $0.86. How do I add 5% to a number?

Divide the number you wish to add 5% to by 100.

Multiply this new number by 5.

Add the product of the multiplication to your original number.
