A bouquet of flowers costs $20, but it was offered at a special 40% discount for Valentine's Day. To find the total cost after applying the discount and adding tax, we first calculate the amount of the discount, which comes to $8, resulting in a sale price of $12. Next, we calculate the tax of 13% on the discounted price, which adds approximately $1.56. Finally, we sum the discounted price and the tax, leading to a total cost of $13.56 for the bouquet of flowers.
