A TV has a listed price of $751.98 before tax. If the sales tax rate is 8.75%, find the total cost of the TV with sales tax included. Round your answer to the nearest cent, as necessary.

$817.78

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the tax you must do the equation:

751.98 x 0.0875

(Btw, 0.0875 is decimal form of 8.75%. Always turn the percentage into a decimal before finding the tax or sale amount)

751.98 x 0.0875 = 65.80.

Now, add the sale tax amount and the original price:

751.98 + 65.80 = 817.78

Therefore, the answer is 817.78.

step-by-step explanation:

(s)he  is right it would be 5.5% because it is smaller than 15.5% or anything smaller than 15.5% in general

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.
