i hope this helps!

Answer: Option 'c' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Let y be the original price of the game.

Discount rate =12%

So, amount of discount would be

[tex]0.12\times y\\\\=0.12y[/tex]

Price after discount would be

[tex]y-0.12y=0.88y[/tex]

Sales tax = 6%

Amount of tax would be

[tex]\dfrac{6}{100}\times 0.88y\\\\=0.06\times 0.88y[/tex]

Price after tax would be

[tex]0.88y+0.6\times 0.88y\\\\=0.88(y+0.06y)\\\\=0.88(1.06y)[/tex]

Hence, Option 'c' is correct.
