    The have 7.33 extra

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First step is to find the discount

    Discount = original price * discount rate

    = 129.99 * 15%

    = 129.99*.15

    =19.50

    Take the discount from the original price and that is the new price

    new price = original price - discount

    = 129.99-19.50

    110.49

    Now we need to find the tax

    tax = new price * tax rate

    = 110.49 * 6.5%

    = 110.49 *.065

    =7.18

    The final price is the new price plus the tax

    final price = new price + tax

    = 110.49+7.18

    =117.67

    This is less than 125, so they have enough money

    125 - 117.67 = 7.33
