    Answer: $47.66

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The cost of the sweater is calculated by multiplying. 7 x $35. (70% represents the cost of the sweater since there is a 30% discount.). The sweater cost $24.50.

    The cost of the jeans is. 85 x $28 = $23.80.

    The total cost is $24.50 + $23.80 = $43.80.

    The tax rate is 8%, which is calculated by multiplying. 08 x $43.80 = $3.86 in sales tax.

    Including the sales tax, the total cost is $43.80 + 3.86 = $47.66
