$263.75 is the answer :)

Answer: Yvette paid $26.75 after receiving the rebate

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Full price of GPS unit = $275

Rate of sales tax = 5%

So, Amount of tax is given by

\(\dfrac{5}{100}\times 275\\\\=\$13.75\)

so, Amount of GPS after tax is given by

\(\$275+\$13.75\\\\=\$288.75\)

Now, Amount of rebate she received = $25

So, Amount she paying after receiving the rebate is given by
