Exit Ticket - Answers • The Martins need a new living room couch. The couch they like costs $2,700. The salesperson told the Martins that the couch will be on sale next month for 30% off. If the sales tax rate in their city is 6.5%, how much will the Martins pay, including sales tax, if they wait until the couch goes on sale? First, set up a proportion to find the discounted price of the couch. discount percent = discount amount 30 = x 100 original price 100 $2,700 Use CMAD to find the discount amount of $810. Then, SUBTRACT the discount amount to find the new, sale price. $2,700-$810 = $1,890. Next, find the sales tax using another proportion. 6.5 = x Use CMAD to find the sales tax amount of $122.85 100 $1,890 Finally, ADD the sales tax to the sale price to find your “out the door” cost. $1,890 + $122.85 = $2,012.85 81,000 12,285
