How much did the coach, sectional, and everything else cost? ** The combined cost of everything was 2500+3500+2000=$<<2500+3500+2000=8000>>8000
How much did he get a discount? ** So he gets an 8000*.1=$<<8000*.1=800>>800 discount
How much did he pay? ** That means he pays 8000-800=$<<8000-800=7200>>7200
#### 7200
