Answer 1

1. To find the tax paid, multiply the list price of the video game ($59.99) by the sales tax rate (7%).
Tax paid = $59.99 * 0.07 = $4.20

2. To find the total cost of the video game, add the list price ($59.99) to the tax paid ($4.20).
Total cost = $59.99 + $4.20 = $64.19

Therefore, the correct answer is:
$4.20; $64.19
