A TV has a listed price of $748.98 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.
To find the total cost of the TV with sales tax included, we first need to calculate the sales tax amount.
Sales tax = Listed price * Sales tax rate
Sales tax = $748.98 * 0.0875
Sales tax = $65.61
Now, we add the sales tax amount to the listed price to find the total cost:
Total cost = Listed price + Sales tax
Total cost = $748.98 + $65.61
Total cost = $814.59
Therefore, the total cost of the TV with sales tax included is $814.59.
