1. Calculate the reduced price (30% down):

multiply the regular price by 0.3:

[tex]32\cdot0.3=9.6[/tex]

Subtract 9.6 from the regular price:

[tex]32-9.6=22.4[/tex]

Then, the reduced price is $22.4

2. Calculate the sales tax (sales tax is charged on the reduced price):

[tex]\begin{gathered} 22.4\cdot0.04=0.896 \\ \\ \\ 22.4+0.896=23.30 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Final Price: $23.30

3. Subtract the final price from the $25:

[tex]25-23.30=1.70[/tex]Then, the change is $1.70
