Answer: Option 'D' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Sale off = 15%

Rate of sales tax = 5%

Let y be the original price of the DVD.

Amount of sales tax would be

[tex]\dfrac{5}{100}\times y\\\\=0.05y[/tex]

Amount after tax would be

y + 0.05 y = 1.05y

Now, there is off of 15%, so final cost of the DVD would be

[tex]\dfrac{100-15}{100}\times 1.05y\\\\=\dfrac{85}{100}\times 1.05y\\\\=0.85(1.05y)[/tex]

Hence, Option 'D' is correct.
