A

Step-by-step explanation:

First discount is the original price reduced by 35% prior to the annual clearance.

So, 35% of 1325 = 0.35 * 1325 = 463.75.

After the discount of $463.75, the price that remains = 1,325 - 463.75 = $861.25.

Then, additional disount of 10%.

10% of $1,325. = 0.10 * 1,325. = 132.50

The final price after discount of 10% = 861.25 - 132.50. = 728.75.

Round to the nearest cent, we get 728.75.

Therefore, you would pay $ 728.75 after applying the discounts.
