Answer:

  • The total cost of a TV and 9% tax is $1079.1.

Explanation:

We know that:

  • Cost of TV = $990
  • 990 x 9/100 = 9% Tax

Work:

  • 990 + (990 x 9/100) = Total cost
  • => 990 + (99 x 9/10) = Total cost
  • => 990 + (9.9 x 9) = Total cost
  • => $1079.1 = Total cost

Hence, the total cost of a TV and 9% tax is $1079.1.

Hoped this helped.
