Answer:

Purchase amount = $642

Explanation:

Given that:

Jeff has bought:

cell phone = $500

4 Accessories = 4 * $25

4 acessories = $100

Total = $500 + $100 = $600

As the sale tax is 7% so

Sale tax = 7% (600)

Sale Tax = 0.07(600)

Sale Tax = $42

So the purchase amount will be Total + Sale Tax

Purchase amount = $600 + $42 = $642

i hope it will help you!
