Answer:

$160.18

Explanation:

The cabinet's sale price (or in this case, sub-total) is $149. The sales tax is 7.5%, which means you must multiply 149 x 7.5% to get 11.175. After you do this, you must add the 11.175 (which we will round to $11.18 for your tax) to your subtotal ($149). Since $149 + $11.18 = $160.18, you will have to pay a total of $160.18 for the cabinet.
