To find the total cost of the snowboard including shipping and handling, we first need to calculate the shipping and handling cost. The snowboard is priced at $809, and the shipping and handling cost is 21% of that price.
1. Calculate the shipping and handling cost:
\[
\text{Shipping and Handling Cost} = 0.21 \times 809 = 169.89
\]
2. Add the shipping and handling cost to the price of the snowboard:
\[
\text{Total Cost} = 809 + 169.89 = 978.89
\]
3. Round the total cost to the nearest dollar:
\[
\text{Total Cost (rounded)} = 979
\]
Thus, the total cost of the snowboard, including shipping and handling, is \(\$979\).
