Ответ:
The student added the discount instead of subtracting the discount.
They also did not calculate the tax correctly.
Step-by-step explanation:
Original price is 499
Discount = original price * percent off
Discount = 499 * .18
=89.82
The sale price = original price minus the discount
sale price = 499-89.82
sale price = 409.18
Sales tax = sale price * tax rate
= 409.18 * 8.875%
=409.18*.08875
=36.314725
Rounding to the nearest cent
36.31
Final cost = sale price + sales tax
=409.18+36.31
445.49
