Step-by-step explanation:

The question says that Zachary went on a shopping trip to Belleville. He purchased a television originally priced at $50 but discounted 20%. If sales tax in Belleville is 5%, what was the total cost?

This question is very simple if you try to read it carefully.

Zachary purchased a television originally priced at $50 but she gets lucky and its on a discount of 20%

If so,the new price of the television will be

20/100 × 50 = $10

$50 - $10 = $40

And the issue of tax on sales come in which is 5%

So, 5/100 × 40 = $2 for tax.

Now the total amount of money spent by Zachary to purchase the television will be

$40 + $2 = $42
