Answer:

$95.23

Explanation:

Finding total cost including tax:

We are calculating the total cost including tax. To calculate tax, multiply the tax% by the price of the product.

Price of the item = $ 89

Tax percentage = 7%


\sf Here, 7 \% = (7)/(100) \ which \ is \ 0.07.

Tax = tax% * price of the item

= 0.07 * 89

= $6.23


\boxed{\text{\bf Total cost = price of the item + tax}}

= 89 + 6.23

= $ 95.23

Answer: $95.23
