please help and please explain why you picked that answer


Jason purchased a pack of game cards that was on sale for 13% off. The sales tax in his county is 8%. Let y represent the original price of the cards. Write an expression that can be used to determine the final cost of the cards.


y − 0.13y


1.08(0.87y)


0.08(0.87y)


y − 0.87y + 0.08y

Verified Answer :

if original price is y then with the sales tax it will by  1.08y
now we have to take 13% (0.13)  off that 
one way would be to multuply 1.08y by 0.87

the second option is the correct one
