Okay! Assuming this only wants the tax that will be added to the total, multiply the decimal percent by the cost of the item.
7.5% = .075
14.80 * .075 = 1.11
1.11 of tax will be added onto the total cost.
The total cost would be 15.91, which you can get from adding 14.80 to 1.11 or by doing 14.80 * 1.075. Regardless, the answer to this question is 1.11.
We must take into account the following change of units:

Applying the change of units we have that the electric consumption for 1 year is given by:

Then, the total cost is given by:
Answer:
