Answer:

$49.572

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Cost per disc = $18

Number of disc purchased = 3

Discount received = 15%

Sales tax = 8%

Original cost : cost per dic * number purchased

Original cost = $18 * 3 = $54

Discounted price = (100 - 15)% * $54

Discounted price = $45.9

Sales tax :

(100 + 8)% of $45.9

108% * $45.9

= $49.572

Total price = $49.572
