Step-by-step explanation:

The manufacturing price of a television is $170.

(a) The online retailer charges a standard makeup of 27% and an additional 15% charge for shipping and tax.

Therefore the final price will be $

= $(170 × 1.27 × 1.15)

= $248.285

(b) Now, the superstore has makeup of 34% and then 9.5% charges for state tax.

So, the final price becomes $

= $(170 × 1.34 × 1.095)

= $249.441

(c) So, I will prefer to buy the television from the online store because the final price is less and also the shipping charges are included in the final price. (Answer)
