FIST ONE TO AWNSER IF CORRECT GETS 50 POINTS AND BRAINLYIST PLZ HELP
You started with $300, and you spent $115 on Jake. You also set aside money to cover the sales tax on $300. Now it’s your turn to decide exactly what you will purchase with the money you have left. You calculated the costs and best prices for sheets, shoes, dressers, and peaches, but you didn’t buy anything yet. Now it’s time to make your purchases. Make a list of the things you will buy and how much each items cost. Explain your purchasing decisions. (2 points)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If sales tax is 6% then you started with $318 ($300*6%=18 + 300 = 318)
If you then spent $115 that gives you $203 leftover (318-115=203)
Dressers can be expensive assume at least $150
Sheets can be as cheap as $15 same thing with shoes ($15)
Peaches are only a few dollars a pound.
So to have a nice dresser I would buy a lower quality of sheets and shoes. Peaches go bad so I wouldn’t purchase more than a pound.
I hope this helps. There are a lot of assumptions to be made in this problem.
