Answer:
They can make 10 different groups of three.
Step-by-step explanation:
The order in which the people are in the car is not important, so we use the combinations formula to solve this question.
Combinations formula:
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

How many different groups of three can the five of them make?
Combinations of 3 from a set of 5. So

They can make 10 different groups of three.
Firstly, we need to know the price of the TV after the 110$ increase.
$165 x 1.10 = $181.50
[This is an increase of $16.50]
[1.10 is the equivalent of 110%. 1 being 100% and the .10 being 10%]
Now for the sales tax. We apply a similar method.
$181.50 x 0.065 = $11.79
6.5% of $181.50 is $11.79, so we add the two together to find the final cost.
The final cost of the TV is $193.29
The point where the two axes intersect (0,0) it's the point of origin.
