The plaid flannel shirt that you have
wanted for months is now on sale at the mall for $35. sales tax at the
mall is 7%. before you leave to buy the shirt, you see an ad for the
same shirt for $30 with a sales tax of 9.5% at a shop 20 miles away.
decide which shirt is the better buy and tell why. can you think of one
reason that would make the more expensive shirt a better buy?

first shirt

35 x 0.07 = 2.45

35 + 2.45 = $37.45

therefore the first shirt will cost $37.45 with tax included

second shirt

30 x 0.095 = 2.85

30 + 2.85 = 32.85

therefore the second shirt will cost $32.85 with tax included

in conclusion, it is cheaper to buy the second shirt however it is 20miles away meaning it will take more time to buy the shirt. If youre in a hurry then you should get the first shirt even if it cost more than the other one because it will save you time but if youre not in a hurry then you should buy the second shirt since you can save $4.6.
