    Step-by-step explanation:

    The original price of the wind chimes at the home improvement store is $w.

    A customer signed up for a free membership card and received a 5% discount off the price. The value of the discount is

    5/100 * w = 0.05w

    The discounted price would be

    w - 0.05w = 0.95w

    Sales tax of 6% was applied after the discount. The amount of sales tax applied would be

    6/100 * 0.95w = 0.057w

    The algebraic expression to represent the final price of the wind chime is

    0.95w + 0.057w

    = 1.007w
