Respuesta :

Answer:

$615.63

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the cost of a refrigerator given the original cost, tax amount and rebate. We proceed as follows:

Firstly, we calculate the tax to be paid. This is at 8.5%.

Mathematically, tax amount = 8.5/100 * 678 = $57.63

Total amount to be paid is thus 57.63+678 = $735.63

We subtract the amount for the rebate = 735.63 - 120 = $615.63
