1 answer

The sales tax on the TV can be found by multiplying the listed price by the sales tax rate:

$663.95 x 0.075 = $49.80

To find the total cost of the TV with sales tax included, we need to add the sales tax amount to the listed price:

$663.95 + $49.80 = $713.75

Rounding this answer to the nearest cent gives us: $713.75. Answer: \boxed{713.75}.
