Answer

C) 325.41

Step by step explanation

The land-line telephone costs =$25.95

Utilities tax percentage = 4.5% = 4.5/100 = 0.045

Utility tax for amount $25.95 = 25.95*0.045

Utility tax = $1.17

The amount of telephone bill with tax = $25.95 + $1.17

= $27.12

There are 12 months in a year.

Telephone bill for a year = $27.12 * 12

= $325.44

Therefore, the nearest amount $325.41

You need to pay $325.41 as telephone bill for a year.

Thank you.
