$16.95

Step-by-step explanation:

A department store is having a 15% off sale on all winter coats.

The cost of the winter coat that you purchased = $275

The price after discount of 15% = 275 -(15% × 275)

                                                    = 275 - (0.15 × 275)

                                                    = 275 - 41.25

                                                    = $233.75

Sales tax rate on that location = 7.25%

Sales tax which you would pay = 7.25% × 233.75

                                                    = 0.0725 × 233.75

                                                    = $16.9468 ≈ $16.95

You have to pay $16.95 sales tax.
